Hello,

My ISP recently changed their SSL certificate to what they call a wildcard SSL certificate.

While all other e-mail softwares work OK with this new certificate, The Bat refuses to work with this certificate.

Everytime I try to log into my mail a/c via port 995 using The Bat, it just says,
FETCH - The server host name does not match the certificate.
even though the settings are confirmed to work ok and work perfectly well with all other email softwares.

I am using Ver. 1.62r The Bat!
