           Summary: No obvious way to add trusted certificates/CAs for SSL
                    or TLS
           Product: kde
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Gentoo Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: guido-kdebugs at unknownsite.de


Version:            (using KDE 4.3.2)
Compiler:          gcc 4.3.2 
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages

I cannot find any way to import new SSL-/TLS- CA certificates into KDE, so that
they are trusted as issuers for SSL/TLS connections.

I'm using several SSL enabled imap, pop3, smtp, http and xmpp servers that use
certificates issued by CACert. To be able to use these servers securely, it's
obviously necessary to import the root certificates of CACert into the client
applications I intend to use. Unfortunately, I couldn't find any way to import
any SSL certificates anywhere in KDE after clicking around in both Konqueror's
and Kmail's configuration dialogs for some time and in the system settings
after that.

In fact, I can't find sort of SSL configuration anywhere in KDE at all.

Clicking on the certificate files in Konqueror's file view will import them
into Kleopatra - which isn't very helpful, I want to use these certs for
validating SSL-connections, not for validating S/MIME signed emails.
