Closer to the original post in the thread: The other time I get cert dialogs that look like this is when the IMAP server legit updates its cert every x-months, *and* EP was connecting to it using a DNS name that's not listed in the cert. In other words, the cert contains the server's real name, but DNS entries may contain a different name.
So when connecting to the server by its real name, the cert validates without this dialog.
But when connecting to the server by its name listed in DNS, the cert is considered not-valid, so the dialog appears.
Not sure what happens when connect to the server by its IP address.
It this the right way of understanding it, or is there anything I'm missing?
