Invalid server certificate yahoo mail

droid x ver 2.3.3 when using yahoomail i sometimes get invalid server certificate. i delete account reinstall and its a crap shoot if it will work.sometimes i get certificate from the server is not validated.really getting to be a pain as this as been going on for months.

After the Gingerbread update, I was never able to get my Hotmail to re-sync. Always got an "Invalid Certificate" message. Tried re-boot, battery pull, soft re-boot (I was not willing to do a factory re-set). Just gave up. Intermittently had the problem with Yahoo. Almost gave up, but last time I deleted and re-added the account, it seemed to do the trick, for a month or so.
Lost it again yesterday, with the invalid certificate message. Seems others did as well (yesterday), which may suggest the derivation of the problem is not with the users.
Following the suggestion here, I tried to perform an "uncheck" of the "verify certificate," but I also do not see that anywhere.
Pretty frustrating to not be able to sync all accounts, and have to periodically deal with this problem, following the Gingerbread update.

I am getting a Invalid Server Certificate error when I go to secure web sites.

I am getting an Invalid Server Certificate error in Safari when I go to https web sites. I am running Snow Leopard 10.6.8. My time and date are correct on my computer. I have no problem accessing non-https web sites.
Any suggestions on why this is happening are appreciated.

Launch the Activity Monitor application by entering the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select “All Processes” from the popup menu in the toolbar, if not already selected. Enter "ocspd" (without the quotes) in the "Filter" text field. Does a process with that name appear in the table below?
If not, see this thread:

Keep getting "invalid server certificate" for hotmail...

Just pops up in my notifications sometimes, but hotmail email still seems to load. Did a search and one for yahoo popped up but didn't have a fix. Anyone else getting this error or have a possible fix for it?

Well, thanks for all the help. After spending a lot of time at the store and on the phone they decided to send me a replacement, and they sent me the Droid X2... So far, so good. I do miss the camera button, but after a day I am really enjoying this phone. I just didn't want to leave you guys hanging, so thank you all for the help! Wish me luck on this one

Problems with Yahoo Mail Plus

I have a Yahoo Mail Plus account and I can get my mail through Outlook 2007 without any problem, but I cannot receive (muchless send) any e-mail on my iPod Touch.
My incoming mail server is plus.pop.mail.yahoo.com and my outgoing mail server is plus.smtp.mail.yahoo.com. I've deleted and recreated my account on my Touch, and I've deleted my account and had it recreated when I've synced with iTunes. Neither of these methods have worked. My password is correct and I know I've got a WiFi connection because I can go anywhere I like on the internet using Safari.
Can anybody help me? Please???

Try this:
1.) Go to settings (or if you don't have an account setup, just go to the mail app)
2.) Don't touch the yahoo icon. Hit "other"
3.) Select POP from the top 3 buttons
4.) enter your name, email address ([email protected]) and your password
5.) Enter the host name for the incoming mail server (for yahoo mail, it should be "pop.mail.yahoo.com ". Enter your user name (without the @yahoo.com) and then enter your password you use.
6.) Enter the host name for the outgoing mail server. It should be "smtp.mail.yahoo.com "
This was posted by a friend that said he got it working this way - I have not tested as I have no Yahoo! account.
Here is another set of instructions I found online - again, NOT tested by me.
1) Open yahoo mail
2) Click "options" tab in upper right corner
3) In center column click "pop access and fowarding"
4) Make sure there is a blue dot where it says Web and POP access, if not click there so that it does. You may also decide your spam choices here.
5) Click "save" in upper left corner underneath where it says mail
Now go back to your touch
1) open settings on the touch
2) tap mail
3) tap add account
4) tap other
5) tap POP
6) put your name in
7) add your yahoo email address
8) it will show your yahoo account again as the description
9) under incoming server mail host name, type in pop.mail.yahoo.com
10) type in your user name
11) type in your password
12) under outgoing mail server host name, type in smtp.mail.yahoo.com:465
13) type in your user name
14) type in your password
15) tap advanced
16) under advanced make sure that SSL is on, authentication is set to password
and that the server port is 995 for incoming and 465 for outgoing

When trying to update my Mail Account Mailbox Behaviours settings, after making the changes when I try to close the settings pane the following messages occur: Invalid Incoming Mail Server The “Incoming Mail Server” field cannot be empty. The incoming mail server box has in light grey colour: p02-imap.mail.me.com in it and I cannot edit its content. Any ideas what is going on and how to fix it?

Hi all,
Mattreichenbach is probably on the right track here with a reset of settings. I think I've determined the issue has to do with cached account information and inconsistencies for the account name. This seems to crop up when I've changed my password and it hasn't propagated fully to all the servers, devices, certificates, etc.
Hopefully many here are on their way to restoration of service by now but it's clear that a lot of people are having the same issues. Very frustrating and definitely something Apple needs to resolve: incoming mail server field grayed out, incorrect autopopulation of different fields, other unanticipated behaviors. If you're still having issues, though, here's what worked for me...
First, head to the iCloud preferences pane in System Configuration and choose "Sign Out". When I did this it prompted me with a number of "are you sure" type questions about retaining information on my local machine. I chose to delete/remove the info each time simply because it should all be restored by the cloud and I didn't want to risk a massive duplication of my data... I will say, I'm back up and running with no issues so I suspect you can make the same delete/remove choices... But use your own judgment. I don't want you to lose any data (ie.. please use care as you do this because I cannot bear the thought of causing anyone to experience the pain of data loss).
Once you've signed out of iCloud, restart your system. When you get back in, head to the Mail, Contacts and Calendars section of your System Preferences and add your account back by choosing the brushed aluminum "iCloud" button. When it asks for your account name, use your @iCloud.com email address. I am all but certain my issue had started because one of my devices (iPhone or whatever) had been set up with an email alias specified instead of my @iCloud.com address.
Apple, if you're reading through any of these issues (there are TONS of users having this same problem). Take note, that your icloud service somewhat frequently is not responding and yet tells the user that the password is wrong and this prompts people to be changing their passwords unnecessarily. This has happened to me on numerous occasions. Also, I noticed that last week's outage corresponded to a VERY similar outage exactly one year ago to the day. Sounds like planned maintenance to me and I think you could do a better job notifying folks so we're not wasting HUGE amounts of time troubleshooting a problem that we have no hope of fixing.
Hope that helps some of you!

Get certificate error trying to access yahoo mail, and there is no exception to bypass the error.

I am getting a certificate error trying to access https://mail.yahoo.com. Unlike most other certificate errors, there is no option for "I understand the risks" to add an exception for the page, just the following:
mail.yahoo.com uses an invalid security certificate. The certificate is not trusted because the issuer certificate is unknown. (Error code: sec_error_unknown_issuer)
I tried setting the proxy to "no proxy" under Advanced settings, as well as clearing all cookies and other cache history. Did not resolve the problem. I cannot access my email.

hello, which security program is running on your computer?

Hello there stidhambr15,
I was researching the issue you are having and recommend a couple of things. First it might be a good idea to reset the device following iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting found here http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
Resetting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
If that doesn't quite get the device going again, I recommend restoring the device.
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1414
Might even be a good idea to turn off the phone, reseat the SIM card, and turn it back on.

TS1843 Not receiving apple mail. Connection Doctor says not connected to server. Yet receiving gmail and yahoo mail.

Not receiving apple mail. Checked connection Doctor. Not connected to server, yet receiving gmail and yahoo mail.

No, I have a Mac and my email connects via our pacbell account we've had for years. However, something in the Preferences/Accounts is not correct I am guessing. Also, it asks for the password and if I put it in and click save through general or viewing, it's NOT saving it and still not allowing me to get email. My husband tried reading about this through our AT&T acct and said to change the incoming server to imap.mail.yahoo.com and outgoing smtp.mail.yahoo;[email protected], but now I can't receive or send any email on my Mac. In advanced not sure if it should be Port of 465 or 900 something or other and SSL checked or not. I called AT&T and they want to take over my machine by charging $15/mos for a year to fix this. Ridiculous.
So, everytime prior to yesterday, when my husband messed around with it, I was getting a POP needs password box, typed in my password, but to no avail..Then it Keychain password popped up and assumed it was the same, but there's no way to change or modify it even using the new password my husband set up through AT&T. I am at a complete loss.
I can access mail through yahoo mail and it takes me to AT&T Yahoo Mail, but no contacts are there so needless to say this is a pain.
I appreciate any assistance you can give me so I can get back on my email as I have for 4 years.
Thanks Hackintosh...I look forward to hearing from you....you can use the email above and it will come to me through my yahoo web page....Thanks again and let me know if you need any other information. If you respond on here, I may not get the answer from you as I didn't know you responded until I came on discussions. THanks

Yahoo sent mail not saved to server when using Mail only.

Why does my Yahoo sent mail not get saved to the server when I use Apple's Mail program? (I have it saved in settings to keep sent mail on server). I can see it in my Sent mail folder on Apple Mail but not on the yahoo server. It's an IMAP account and it works fine on my iPhone.
I have tried changing the outgoing ports as well and erasing the account and reinstating it on the Mail program. No luck.

I finally figured out how to fix this; under the mailbox menu there is an option to "use this mailbox for" that allowed me to select the Sent Items folder from my Yahoo IMAP list of folders and make it the default for sent items from the Mac OS X mail software! "

it should works, if you use the following parameters:

I'll bet you it will NOT work & even give you 10 to 1 odds that it will fail.
Yahoo won't relay your spam; which is why your messages will be rejected.
What is the difference between your message & a message from a spammer?
