>Description:
This is from Debian Bug#342840; I can reproduce by setting
pop_host="pops://user@server", pressing G, and eg. 'x' at the certificate
prompt.
--------------------
I have been lazily using 'G' to retrieve mail from a POPS server.
I noticed a reaction after upgrading from mutt_1.5.9-2. At the
"confirm server certificate prompt": "WARNING: Server certificate has
expired", "(r)eject, accept (o)nce".
If the response is neither 'r' nor 'o', then there is a long delay,
with no beeps. After the delay, pressing 'o' causes: "Key is not
bound." Afterwards, 'r' and 'o' are accepted normally.
I checked the Debian and upstream changelogs, but couldn't see
anything relevant, going to back to 2005 May.
