Why did changing the TLS cert break things? Were you pinning it in your client?

- daveloyall 10y agoI don't remember. Oh, it was this: http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.mail.imap.offlineimap.general/5654 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.mail.imap.offlineimap.genera... But what that doesn't show is that they then changed it back, and forth... for a while. It was just a UX issue that only affected computer literate people. THE BEST KIND. :( I remember when some combination of Gmail features* enabled me to upload my old mbox with years of personal email into my GAFYD account... emails from before Gmail publicly existed. And now I could SEARCH them! The future was bright. I certainly felt confident that I would be a gmail user for life. I certainly didn't consider the possibility that they'd one day just deny my access to the whole thing because I spoke ill of them in a HN comment. ;) * access external pop3 account and auto-rewrite message headers so messages would be associated with my gmail address even though they were originally delivered to a different domain... Brilliant.

- daveloyall 10y agoDid not happen. Hopefully it's even less than hypothetical.
