If you ever get a bad SSL certificate error in Outlook or Evolution mail, here's a clue for you.
Open Firefox and go to the server in question. Make sure the https://servername is in the address bar. So if it's the gmail server then log into your gmail account. If it's a local ISP then log into their web mail interface.
Find the locked padlock icon on the Firefox window and click it. Then navigate to view certificate. You will notice it will be a self-signed certificate. Find the option to export certificate and save it to a file.
Now open your email client and find the 'preferences' or 'options' page for certificates. You should find the option to import 'contact certificates'. Import the file you just saved.
That's it... you should not get this error.
