SSL/TLS Option Breaks My SMTP Notifications

NOYB

Yes, I just added it below all the other CA's and incremented the number of certificates.

Mine is a self signed, so I have to added it. I wish PHP curl could use it from the one that is in config (System / Certificate Manager / CAs) so it would survive upgrades and I wouldn't have to remember to add it to the file.

Here are the results of notification test message with and without and with my CA added to the ca-root-nss.crt file.

According to a kdiff comparison it appears this certificate was present in 2.3 but is absent in 2.3.2. If that is the CA for your cert then that would likely be why it quit working.

Great! Thank you all for your help! I will add the CA for the current cert from the mailserver and post if the issue is resolved.

@NOYB - another thing I noticed that the standard web interface cert is shown as OK in firefox while chrome throws the caution error, any way to correct this as I have not had any luck getting a cert for just the IP anymore, used to but have not be able to recently. Alt would be to use the domain name, but I find the IP more reliable.

Thanks NOYB, this was very useful information for me.

I imported my own self-signed cert and the CA for it (System / Certificate Manager / …). Then configured Admin Access to use that cert for SSL and installed the CA in my browsers trusted roots.
