I agree. And for the past ten days that is what I have been trying to resolve. 
I finally did that this morning and successfully connected to the mx service
host using the exact keystore file that the application uses.

JAVA_VERSION="12" java
-Djavax.net.ssl.trustStore=/opt/idempiere/idempiere-server/jettyhome/etc/keystore
 -Djavax.net.ssl.trustStorePassword=testing  SSLPoke 192.168.216.32 465

So, there has to be something in the application that is causing this to break.
 But I am not a Java programmer.  I am simply trying to get this messaging
feature to work so that we can proceed with our evaluation of idempiere.

In this case, the connection from the client could not get past the protocol
handshake until after SSLv3 was re-enabled.  But the advice about misleading
error messages is duly noted.
