ssl cert check

Is it possible to disable verification of certs? I need to access IMAP via an ssh tunnel with forwarded port. Ill assume the prog then tries to
authenticate "localhost" ..and it fails.

Thanks,

Try setting options.certificates = true in your config file.

Try setting options.certificates = true in your config file.

Im assuming thats a global setting, as it fails to parse in the IMAP setting. But it does not make any difference, still same err.

Yes, that's right.

But it does not make any difference, still same err.

Oh, probably it's the server hostname validation then. Try options.hostnames = false.

Also just realized that I had a mistake in the initial option, it should be: options.certificates = false, ie. not true.

So try disabling one or the other option, and then try disabling both.

Ah yes, certificates = false makes sense :D Great, that worked, didn't need the other option for this case.

Thank you!
