B4J Question b4j pop3 error

[Beja]

Hi,
The example used to work fine long time ago (a few years).. today it threw errors as follows.
Any advice or help appreciated.
Following is the error I received in the app window:
=====================================
04/28/2016 19:24:08: Error: (SunCertPathBuilderException) sun.security.provider.certpath.SunCertPathBuilderException: unable to find valid certification path to requested target

Following are the complete logs:

Thanks Bill
1- I am using yahoo mail (not gMail)
2- Windows 10 (upgrade) 64 bit
3- The app is pop3 not smtp
4- Erel's pop3 example was working fine a few years ago.. I just tried to run it again without change.
5- The only change in the dev env is the Windows and b4j versions

Best.

It seems like a certification issue

Don't panic. All you need to do is to add the server certificate to your trusted Java key store if your client is written in Java. You might be wondering how as if you can not access the machine where the server is installed. There is a simple program can help you. Please download the Java program and run

% java InstallCert _web_site_hostname_

java -cp InstallCert.jar InstallCert pop.mail.yahoo.com:995
