Empathy is completely right here. A certificate for www.example.com is not valid for example.com., the problem here probably lies in livejournal.com hands.
A better support for SSL certificate verification has been added in 2.9x/3.0 branch (allowing to add exceptions) but still empathy is right here to warn you about hostname/certificate CN mismatch. I'm tempted to close this bug as invalid. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to empathy in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/743523 Title: Empathy thinks a server certificate from www.EXAMPLE.com isn't from EXAMPLE.com -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
