pop.googlemail certificate problem in Apple Mail

[allan_zip]

Recently everytime i open Apple Mail i get a warning saying "Unable to verify ssl server pop.googlemail.com", stopping me from connecting online and retrieving my mail from my gmail account. It warns that the certificate may not be authentic. I have deleted and reset all my account details in Mail but still no dice. Anyone know what the problem could be and better yet how i could deal with it?

i use googlemail on Apple Mail as well and it works perfectly, i think it should be set to 'pop.gmail.com' instead of the full 'pop.googlemail.com'

hope you solve the problem!

Changed them but no luck. Still getting the certificate warning. The configuration instructions for gmail specify "googlemail.com" in all cases.

In the UK it's googlemail,something to do with a trade name dispute,but older accounts are still gmail.com.

i just did mine yesterday and it works ok (pop.googlemail +xxx@gmail). did yours ever work? or is it just a 'suddenly i think i might just pack up and not work' thing?

it does this with my Warwick email, but not my GMail account, hopefully apple'l fix it with 10.4.7

It worked fine when i first configured it about 6 months back and only recently packed in.

Wildly off date and time settings on your computer can screw up the SSL handshake and cause "invalid cert" problems.
