> As of 1.2.11 the SmtpAppender now has support for enabling smtp connections 
> to use SSL. It is pretty common to have an SMTP server that is using a 
> Self-Signed certificate which will fail the certificate validation. While you 
> can override the certificate error on an application level to overcome this 
> you might want to limit the ignoring of the certificate error just to the 
> appender.
> Proposed Changes
> Add property that allows one to indicate they wish to ignore certificate 
> failures.
> DisableCertificateValidation
> Add a line like this to SendBuffer method
> ServicePointManager.ServerCertificateValidationCallback += new 
> RemoteCertificateValidationCallback(ValidateRemoteCertificate);
> Then create a call back method like so
> private bool ValidateRemoteCertificate(object sender, 
>                       X509Certificate certificate, 
>                       X509Chain chain, 
>                       SslPolicyErrors policyErrors)
> {
>       if(DisableCertificateValidation) return true;
>       
>       return policyErrors == null;
> }
