           Summary: kmail certificates do not correspond to those shown in
                    kleopatra
           Product: kmail
           Version: 1.11.3
          Platform: unspecified
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: mattm3a at yahoo.com


Version:           1.11.3 (using 4.2.3 (KDE 4.2.3) "release 118",
KDE:KDE4:Factory:Desktop / openSUSE_11.1)
Compiler:          gcc
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.27.21-0.1-pae

The use of certificates is confusing in kmail. I have an email provider that
uses a self-signed certificate for their imap server. Importing the certificate
into kleopatra (Tools->Certificate Manager) does not make kmail trust the
certificate. Specifically, the server certificate is alerted to be untrusted
when checking mail. Adding the certificate through kmail when checking
successfully adds trust for the certificate. Also removing the certificate from
kleopatra has no effect on kmail's use of the certificate. 

In short, the certificate manager kleopatra seems completely independent from
the kmail certificates. How does one manage the kmail certificates? I'm unsure
what the intended behavior is, but this seems either incorrect or just very
confusing.
