I saw someone else ask this question in the archive, but i couldn't find an answer to it, so I'll repost it. I've got mutt setup to connect via imaps. When mutt starts up, it pulls the certificate and presents it to me, asking if I want to accept it. I have the options: (r)eject, accept (o)nce, (a)ccept always If I choose (a) it saves the cert in .mutt/certs, says "SSL connection using TLSv1/SSLv3 (DES-CBC3-SHA)" and then asks for my password. I give it my password, and I'm in. No problem. Now if I quit mutt and then start again, it doesn't ask if I want to accept the certificate (this is expected, since I said to accept it always), it instead tells me we've got a SSL connection and then asks me for my password. Now, now matter how many times I type the right password, it wont let me in, I get authentication failures. If I go and delete .mutt/certs, startup mutt, I can login again. If I just accept the certificate once every time, then I can login, but I want to save the certificate and not have to answer that question every startup. This is the log of the Mailserver I'm talking to: the first login, when i choose (a)ccept always : Nov 10 19:10:19 app1 imapsd[20748]: imaps SSL service init from 134.76.23.114 Nov 10 19:10:29 app1 imapsd[20748]: Login user=foo host=RAS23-114.gwdg.de [134.76.23.114] Nov 10 19:10:35 app1 imapsd[20748]: Logout user=foo host=RAS23-114.gwdg.de [134.76.23.114] The next time i try: Nov 10 19:10:54 app1 imapsd[20749]: imaps SSL service init from 134.76.23.114 Mutt asks me for the password, but i get a authetification failed. These lines make me think the problem is somewhere around mutt or my config . The relevant lines of my config: set certificate_file=~/.mutt/certs mailboxes imaps://toedler@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx -- ________ This message is made of 100 % recycled electrons \..| PGP Key: www.stud.uni-goettingen.de/~s242275/pgpkey.pub (o_ .\.|-- Jabber: te_linuxguru at amessage.de (o (o //\ ..\|____ ICQ: 124557012 (/)_(/)_V_/
