.jpg did not make it to the list, which is normal. More or less all
attachments get stripped off.

however I checked on the vm, the certificate is active.

2 good possibilities:

-  firefox dns caching does not resolve to our machine

- Firefox has the old certificate stored and for some reason did not update

-- the certificate was changed some 5-6 month ago, due to a security fix.
