Running the following code, I get an exception:
using (var client = new Pop3Client())
{
client.Connect(provider.ServerWithoutPort, provider.Port, true);
}
The Exception I get:
The remote certificate is invalid according to the validation procedure.

This usually occurs because either of the following are true:
Try getting some information about the certificate of the server and see if you need to install any specific certs on your client to get it to work.
Even shorter version of the solution from Dominic Zukiewicz:
ServicePointManager.ServerCertificateValidationCallback += (o, c, ch, er) => true;
But this means that you will trust all certificates. For a service that isn't just run locally, something a bit smarter will be needed. In the first instance you could use this code to just test whether it solves your problem.
You must check the certificate hash code.
ServicePointManager.ServerCertificateValidationCallback = (sender, certificate, chain,
errors) =>
{
var hashString = certificate.GetCertHashString();
if (hashString != null)
{
var certHashString = hashString.ToLower();
return certHashString == "dec2b525ddeemma8ccfaa8df174455d6e38248c5";
}
return false;
};
Try put this before send e-mail
ServicePointManager.ServerCertificateValidationCallback =
delegate(object s, X509Certificate certificate, X509Chain chain,
SslPolicyErrors sslPolicyErrors) { return true; };
Remenber to add the using libs!
.NET is seeing an invalid SSL certificate on the other end of the connection. There is a workaround for it, but obviously not recommended for production code:
// Put this somewhere that is only once - like an initialization method
ServicePointManager.ServerCertificateValidationCallback += new RemoteCertificateValidationCallback(ValidateCertificate);
...
static bool ValidateCertificate(object sender, X509Certificate certificate, X509Chain chain, SslPolicyErrors errors)
{
return true;
}
I had the same problem while I was testing a project and it turned that running Fiddler was the cause for this error..!!
If you are using Fiddler to intercept the http request, shut it down ...
This is one of the many causes for such error.
To fix Fiddler you may need to Reset Fiddler Https Certificates.
