Another thing could be the self-signed certificates. I think you can solve that by simply loading the proper credentials in SSL_load_verify_locations(). Can you tell what error number do you get from SSL_get_verify_result() - this function returns always some value. This can be then checked in the man pages of verify(1) and you can see what is the problem.

The server certificates are recent (not expired), and 2. But they are self signed certificates (this might be a problem !)

No it means that the verification of the X509 certificate verify functionality detewcted an error.
