mbsync “unable to get issuer certificate” error












0















I am currently using Mutt to access my corporate mail via imap. I'm trying to download my email using isync/mbsync so that I can index and search them using notmuch, however mbsync gives me a certificate error when trying to connect to the server.



All I needed for mutt to work was to set "imap_user" and "imap_pass" correctly in muttrc. Mutt downloaded the certificates from the server automatically and stored them in ~/.mutt_certificates.



I tried pointing isync to the mutt certificate file as well as manually downloading them using openssl and neither configs worked. My mbsyncrc file has the following:



IMAPAccount corp

Host        imapmail.corp.com

User        user

Pass        passwd

AuthMechs   LOGIN

SSLType     IMAPS

CertificateFile ~/.mutt_certificates


When I run mbsync I get the following error:



SSL error connecting imapmail.corp.com (XX.XX.XX.XXX:993): unable to get issuer certificate


If mutt is able successfully connect to the server I would expect to be able to get mbsync to work. Does anyone here know how to force mbsync to ignore the SSL errors?






openssl ssl mutt offlineimap

          Accessing regular linux commands in Huawei's Dopra Linux

          4 Backstory: I have a Huawei HG8245 router in my house and I want to change the default username/password. I've tried following this guide but the config file always gets reset. My ISP isn't helping either so I'm looking for other ways to accomplish this. The router has telnet access so this seems like a way to change the credentials. The first shell I gain access to looks like this: WAP> Pressing "?" gives me a list of available commands which I've pasted here, the two interesting ones are "su" and "shell".
