<![CDATA[Can't connect vivaldi email client: TLS error ERR_CERT_DATE_INVALID]]>I'm trying to connect the mail client built into the Vivaldi browser to my cloudron inbox but when I try to add the account I get this message:

3a4c21d6-1c83-4a2d-a672-bbffbb056272-image.png

(Note: In these examples, I'm changing my real domain for example.com; not that you couldn't guess it.) I'm using the configuration listed in my cloudron at: https://my.example.com/#/email/example.com :

Connection details for other email clients

Incoming Mail (IMAP)
Server: my.example.com
Port: 993 (TLS)

Outgoing Mail (SMTP)
Server: my.example.com
Port: 587 (STARTTLS)

Use mailboxname@example.com and the mailbox owner password to access mailboxes of this domain

The mail status page shows everything is green.

Any ideas?

So, this way, we can know if the service was automatically restarted after cert update.

When will it be solved?

If you go to Services -> Mail -> Restart, it should work after that.

After poking around for a bit it looks like the imap server is using an expired certificate. From thunderbird:

But the web server at my.example.com is using a cert with a valid time range:

Maybe the imap server didn't get restarted when the cert renewed?
