I will try both sides in Java 8. Our client, however, still has to use Java 6 
(government.... sigh...). But at least if the same problem occurs, I'll know 
what's going on. And I'll check the certificates, though I was exceedingly 
careful during the setup and checked everything once already.

Good thought: Java 6 doesn't speak TLS 1.1/1.2 and (recent) Java 8 will refuse 
to negotiate SSLv3. So there may be a protocol issue going on.

David, is there a reason you can't run your client using Java 8? That might 
remove some of the guesswork.
