It seems that in the latest Thunderbird versions security tightened and Thunderbird will simply reject Self Signed Certificates when you try to connect to a (remote) SME Server on secure ports.
 +
You first must add all the secure services ports to the security exceptions of Thunderbird under:
 +
* tools->options->advanced->certificates->view certificates->Add Exception
 +
and add your server address INLCUDING the specific port number of the service!
 +
 +
The format must be:
 +
https://yourserver.com:8993 (for IMAPS)
 +
https://yourserver.com:8143 (SMTP)
 +
https://yourserver.com:8089 (Caldav)
 +
etc. etc
 +
 +
After accepting the self signed certificate for each service-port, you then can add an new email account and the Self Signed Certificate will not be rejected and you normally accept or install it like any other certificate.
