Re: [Logicmail-users] IMAP + SSL with invalid certificate

[Derek K. <dko...@lo...>]

FYI, certificate settings are part of the BlackBerry OS itself, and something 
that LogicMail has absolutely no control over.  When you get that error, it 
just means "I tried opening an SSL socket, and got an exception.  I tried 
again, and it still failed."

If this is indeed an SSL problem, I recommend looking into all the various 
configuration options on the BlackBerry itself.  Specifically, the "Security 
Options" section on the Options screen.  In there you can configure everything 
about how it handles certificates and such.

(Also, I believe you can even use the desktop software to explicitly load your 
own certs on the device, and set trust settings for them)
