Package: gnutls-bin
Version: 2.8.5-2
Severity: important

Today, Evolution stopped being able to connect to my company's email
server, claiming that the SSL certificate was bad. Thunderbird does not
have that problem, but while debugging the issue I found that gnutls-cli
does too.

I've kept the actual server details out of this public bug report;
please tell me what email address I can mail them to if you want to
debug the issue on your end.

$ gnutls-cli --x509cafile /etc/ssl/certs/Go_Daddy_Class_2_CA.pem --starttls -p imap imap.example.com
Processed 1 CA certificate(s).
Resolving 'imap.example.com'...
