First, I need to express my ignorance about SSL and how certs work but that aside, I have a question and wonder if anyone can help. When I try to use Fetchmail to get some mail from gmail using an SSL option, I get cert verification errors which I will show later in this message. First, I'll include my .fetchmailrc with id/password filtered and then I'll follow that with a script of the session. poll pop.gmail.com proto pop3 localdomains holmesgrown.com no dns user steve.holmes88 at gmail.com pass ???? is steve here ssl #mda "/usr/bin/procmail -d %T" I then use the fetchmail command with no options using the config above but note the errors below. Script started on Sun 30 Sep 2007 03:19:15 PM MST steve at pillow:~$ fetchmail fetchmail: Server certificate verification error: unable to get local issuer certificate fetchmail: Server certificate verification error: certificate not trusted fetchmail: Server certificate verification error: unable to verify the first certificate fetchmail: No mail for steve.holmes88 at gmail.com at pop.gmail.com steve at pillow:~$ exit exit Script done on Sun 30 Sep 2007 03:19:51 PM MST Any ideas on why it can't validate the certs or where even to find them if needs be? Thanks for any help.
