First, let me say that the reason I have stopped using The Bat! is because of all the communications problems I have, especially its' useless handling of self-signed certificates. It now has a decent implementation of IMAP, but SSL is not even half way to working as far as I am concerned. I get disconnections, reconnections, warning dialogues that disappear before I can read them, useless warnings in the logs, i.e. it's a mess. When you cannot trust your mail client to receive mails, you don't really have a mail client.

I followed all the instructions, adding certificates, CA certificate, even went as far as adding the private certificate to the address book, all to no avail. I always get the same behaviour. This is one area where work is needed to bring The Bat! up to scratch. I cannot think of any other mail client that has these problems and I have evaluated many. AFAIAC Evolution is the best ever mail client, but I have to use Windows for my customers. The second best should be The Bat!, except that the communications errors drive me mad, so I have to go for something that is far inferior to The Bat!, but I know I will receive my mails in a timely fashion.

Going back into lurk mode....
