OT: SSL Negotiation Failed

Show all headers | View raw

For the last couple of days, when I try to open a link (to a web page) from an 
email in my older version of kmail I get a message that says:

Could not connect to host <hostname>.  SSL negotiation failed.

If I paste the same link directly in the address bar of Firefox, the link 
works fine.

The kmail I use is an older version Wheezy (1.13.7 in kde 4.8.4) (and yes, I 
have plans to eventually move away from Wheezy -- I even have the hardware for 
a new machine).  (I have a Jessie machine, and kmail and some other things are 
aggravating on Jessie (crashes (well, locks up) 

Can anybody shed more light on this.  

I thought I saw a post on one of the mail lists I read about some problem with 
SSL, but I haven't been able to find it again.  It may have had something to do 
with changing the protocol that kmail uses to talk to gmail?  That doesn't 
really make sense to me, I mean, what would that have to do with it?
