Thanx Andre, the situation seems normal again.

Looking at such a SSL Cert., what does it mean when the Signature is BAD? Is it 'safe' to accept?

Do you wish to accept?

you can set CAMEL_DEBUG=all as an environment setting before starting
evolution to get more output, see
http://gnome.org/projects/evolution/bugs.shtml for more information.
(fyi: camel is evolution's mail access library.)
