Oct 1, 2015 2:57 PM in response to theosibby theosib,BTW, I see no expired certificates. This is a brand new machine that I just upgraded. I do see some certs with a yellow triangle, but no red X.

Oct 3, 2015 3:28 PM in response to theosibby Anthony Glaser,I have been unable to get or send email since El Capitan (not the beta!). It seems that it has changed my email account POP to IMAP, and I cannot change it back - whenever I try to log in to the account to change the settings, it says the account already exists (well of course it does!). After all else failed I have deleter the account altogether - and now I can't set up a new account, because . . .guess what . . . it says the account already exists. So, no email for me with El Capitan. Is it time to go to Wndows after 28 years with nothing but Macs?

Oct 3, 2015 4:26 PM in response to Anthony Glaserby Eric Root,Manual setup: Delete the account, then add it back. After filling in the 1st screen, hold down the option/alt key while clicking Continue. Fill in the necessary information, then click continue until all screens are filled in.

Oct 4, 2015 5:13 AM in response to Eric Rootby theosib,I tried similar things to that. I'm not sure what option does, but deleting and re-adding the account didn't help.
I called AppleCare (since I have a new Mac), and they helped me out. The solution was to fix the user permissions in my home directory. I'm not sure what bug caused this to happen in the first place, but here's what you do:
1. Navigate to the /Users directory in Finder (using Go to Folder...)
2. Select your user directory and press Command-I to get info
3. Click the lock to unlock settings
4. Click the gear and select "Apply to enclosed items..."
5. When the "Are you sure" pops up, click Ok.

Feb 2, 2016 11:28 PM in response to theosibby robinfrombruxelles,The solution that helped me is to change the Trust level from "system default" to always trust. Just click on the Certificate details and change it there.

Jul 9, 2016 9:53 AM in response to theosibby Shaun Ferguson,Tried this, but to effect.
I try to add an account and "unable to verify account name or password" when I click continue, on 2nd screen.
Which makes El C useless for me. Looks like I will have to wipe the drive and reinstall Yosemite.
