Description
I just tried logging into a XMPP server and got this error:
Login error: Certificate verification problem 0x4: Unknown
(Caused by https://github.com/bitlbee/bitlbee/blob/master/protocols/jabber/io.c#L296)
This message is not really helpful. As a user, I would like to know if the certificate is expired, didn't match the domain, has no valid root certificate, etc.
I'm not firm in ssl_verify_strerror(returncode), but it would be really helpful to present more information to the user.
