Hi,

I'm running an imap/smtp server that does TLS/IMAPS using certificates issued
by my own local CA, where do i put a copy of cacert.pem for kmail to recognize
it?


bye,
MH

No success, has anybody a solution? KDE 3 and older versions of KDE 4 managed
to "save" that certificate at least for a session, now I have to click "OK" and
"Permanently" for every mail I send and every time I check mail. This is
really really sad.

No help available?

it does *seem* to help to stick the CA certificate in .pem format into
/etc/openssl/certs.

Still, there is no *true KDE" solution, since importing the ca certificate
into the ssl kcm module does not do anything.

/etc/openssl/certs.
In Archlinux:

[***@Fingolfin usr]$ ls /usr/share/apps/kssl/ca-bundle.crt -l
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 34 Jan 26 00:31 /usr/share/apps/kssl/ca-bundle.crt -> /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt

You'll have to add the CA certificate in that file :)

Thanks a lot! That seems to have worked! Beautiful.

You might try Kleopatra, maybe helps.

I don't have this problem, I use SMTP SSL and POP3S
