I think I managed to find the problem.

It seems that our server only supports SSLv3... but AFAICT, using curl, only curl -3 would succesfully access https://our.owncloud.server/status.php

So I figured out that the same was true for the owncloud code.

Investigating a bit, it seems that I managed to patch it to work with SSLv3 :

--- owncloud-client-1.4.2+dfsg.orig/src/creds/httpcredentials.cpp
+++ owncloud-client-1.4.2+dfsg/src/creds/httpcredentials.cpp
@@ -76,6 +76,11 @@ protected:
         QByteArray credHash = QByteArray(_cred->user().toUtf8()+":"+_cred->password().toUtf8()).toBase64();
         QNetworkRequest req(request);
         req.setRawHeader(QByteArray("Authorization"), QByteArray("Basic ") + credHash);
+
+	QSslConfiguration sslConfig = req.sslConfiguration();
+	sslConfig.setProtocol(QSsl::SslV3);
+	req.setSslConfiguration(sslConfig);
+
         return MirallAccessManager::createRequest(op, req, outgoingData);\
     }

Hope this helps.
