Given that all the most used mail progs (thunderbird, outlook, apple mail, evolution, etc) connect you "automatically" the ISP's dont hand out certificates. So I was expecting Openssl to work like Gnutls. And is this a recent change because about a year ago I tried mutt from Homebrew on a Mac and it worked then and I was asked to accept the certificate. And if the Homebrew folks link to openssl now I expect they did the same then (with an earlier version of openssl). So everything should work if I copy the certificate from my Linux pc to the Mac? I shall try it tonight.
