Thank you for your message Luis.

Unfortunately, I could not solve it despite all my efforts. First of
all, I am running Horde 4. I believe for this reason, I do not have the
setting mentioned in the bug report. So that option is not applicable
for me.

For the alternative you mentioned, I think that the certificate used by
the website is revoked or something like that. All the browsers, windows
or linux, mention that the certificate is not signed by a trusted
authority. But the CA certificates are already in /etc/ssl/certs. The
website is this, you can have a look at their certificate:

www.flogs.com

What I tried was to export the certificate from the firefox and put it
into /etc/ssl/certs directory and rehash. But it did not work. 

So have you got any more ideas for me? I can't use calendars with this
problem and they are an important part of my setup.

Thank you.
