Downloading mail using pop3s

[Manuel Carro]

Hello.  I am trying to read mail through pop3s and gnutls-cli seems to
be able to made a connection:


   gnutls-cli -p 995 my.host.com
  Resolving 'my.host.com'...
  Connecting to 'X.Y.Z.W:995'...
  - Certificate type: X.509
   - Got a certificate list of 1 certificates.

   - Certificate[0] info:
   # The hostname in the certificate matches 'my.host.com'.
   # valid since: Wed Aug 31 11:46:09 CEST 2005
   # expires at: Thu Aug 31 11:46:09 CEST 2006
   # fingerprint: F4:08:D3:CA:C8:C0:0B:D4:AF:89:7A:F9:FD:DD:6D:41
   # Subject's DN:

   # Issuer's DN:

  - Peer's certificate issuer is unknown
  - Peer's certificate is NOT trusted
  - Version: TLS1.0
  - Key Exchange: RSA
  - Cipher: AES-128-CBC
  - MAC: SHA1
  - Compression: NULL
  - Handshake was completed

  - Simple Client Mode:

  +OK POP3 my.host.com 2004.89 server ready
  quit
  +OK Sayonara
  *** Fatal error: A TLS packet with unexpected length was received.
  *** Server has terminated the connection abnormally.


However Gnus exits with an error:

Reading /home/mcarro/.newsrc.eld...

nnml: Reading incoming mail from pop...
Opening TLS connection to `my.host.com'...
Opening TLS connection with `gnutls-cli -p 995 my.host.com'...done
Opening TLS connection to `my.host.com'...done
Mail source (pop :server my.host.com :port pop3s :user mcarro) error (POP SSL 
connexion failed).  Continue? (y or n) 

I can read using (non-secure) pop3.  Is there any way to snoop what the
gnutls-cli is doing, to try to isolate the problem?  Thanks!
