[jadmin] Help needed with certificate problem / Pidgin

[Matthias Wimmer]

Hi!

There has been a first interesting post on the Pidgin support mailing 
list about that problem:
http://pidgin.im/pipermail/support/2008-May/001227.html

According to that post, the problem might be, that Pidgin is only 
offering weak ciphers and amessage is indeed configured to only accept 
strong ciphers.
