Allow Self-Signed Certificates not respected

See original GitHub issue

Description

When setting up email notifications, the check box for “Allow Self-Signed Certificates” is checked. However no emails are sent, with the error:

2022-07-18T22:57:35.826Z [error][Notifications]: Error sending email notification
{
  "errorMessage":"self signed certificate",
  "recipient":"xerxes",
  "subject":"Test Notification",
  "type":"TEST_NOTIFICATION"
}

For reference, these exact settings work with another service I have, i.e. another service can send emails using a self-signed certificate

Version

v1.1.0

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Must use an email server using a self-signed certificate.
  2. Settings
  3. Notifications
  4. Email
  5. Check “Allow Self-Signed Certificates”
  6. Send test email

Disabling TLS entirely at least allows me to send emails. The protonmail-bridge running on a separate container is exactly my situation; thanks for finding this.
