I have seen this before, on a server running 6.06 I believe.

That is normal.  The certificate you use will have little effect 
on how the 
SSL performs.  It could effect how the SSL is handled by the 
remote 
browser, but won't normally cause any server-side issues.

>It has also happened on both the default ssl webmail port and 
port 443.

That, too, is normal.  The port used won't make a difference as to 
how well 
the code works.

>It has happened with users using both Netscape and Internet 
Explorer.

Again, normal.  The problem appears to be with the code on the 
server.  The 
initial SSL code in IMail wasn't fully up to par (I haven't 
checked it out 
lately, though).  The http://www.stunnel.org solution (freeware) 
that I 
mentioned earlier replaces all the IMail SSL code, and will take 
care of 
the problem.
