I believe I mentioned this in another message, but if not I'll repeat
it.  One of the things I found while investigating this problem leads
me to believe that the reason mozilla might not work for smtp while
working with imap is that the certificates are different.  This would
either be because people are using the same name for both imap and smtp
(i.e. mail.trilug.org) or because the certificates both claim to be
for localhost.localdomain (since I haven't correctly setup certificates
yet).  Unfortunately, I've done some testing on my home setup which is
almost exactly the same and that leads me to believe that making the
certificates the same won't change much.  So, I"m still investigating.
In any case, fixing our SSL certificates is still high on my list of
things to do.
