Subject: Bug#35931: kmail: repeatedly asks for confirmation on SSL key when using DNS name
From: Daniel Stone <daniel () sfarc ! net>

Package: kmail
Severity: wishlist
------
This bug is forwarded from the Debian BTS, as it was filed on
a Debian package.
The original bug report can be seen at http://bugs.debian.org/120289.
As far as I know, it is not a duplicate of any existing bug.
If it is, I will pick this up and merge within the next 12 hours;
Otherwise, please merge yourself.
Thankyou, Daniel Stone <daniel@sfarc.net>, the "other"
Debian KDE maintainer.
------
I have a localhost connection via SSL. When I had it connecting to "localhost"
it asked me again after every restart (of kmail) whether I wanted to accept the
SSL key. When I changed it to "127.0.0.1" that went away.
I believe that this is a bug. I guess that it was done this way because of
DNS being easy to fake. But once I have said yes to the key then that should
be it IMHO.
