Thanks Sebb. 

I had a look at the Sun site, especially at this "Default Policy
Implementation and Policy File Syntax" document -- no clues there:

I think there isn't an easy property one can set... otherwise Sun
certificate expiry notifications like this would list that as a
workaround?

Is there a way to bypass the CertificateExpiredException in JMeter? (eg:
trap the exception, and... umm,ah). 

This is a very handy option to have: another Java app (webMethods) we
use has a config option to ignore cert expiry, but it doesn't use JSSE. 

Should I create a Bugzilla entry?
