I am trying to access Gmail's SMTP service from an ASP.NET MVC site running under Mono 2.4.2.3. But I keep getting this error:

System.InvalidOperationException: SSL authentication error: RemoteCertificateChainErrors

I have installed certificates using:

certmgr -ssl -m smtps://smtp.gmail.com:465

with this output:

 X.509 Certificate v3

2 certificates added to the stores.

In fact, this worked for a month but mysteriously stopped working on May 5.

I installed these new certs today, but I am still getting these errors.
