[ale] PHP Challenge - Any takers?

[Yu, Jerry]

not on PHP itself, but some general idea:
--------------------------------------------
if the pop3/imap server is using some non-RFC SSL tunneling or even pop3s or
imaps, the client will check the server's SSL certificate. The client can be
configured to take self-signed certificate (aka, w/o verifying its
authenticity. still good for transport security except you aren't sure you
are talking with the right site). By default, the client will abort if the
server's certificate fails the verification (self-signed is one common
rejection).

# I checked the  imap_open() function on the PHP site and it

# Does anybody know what may be happening here?
