Q. Postfix: warning: TLS library problem: error:0A000416:SSL routines::ssl/tls alert certificate unknown:ssl/record/rec_layer_s3.c:865:SSL alert number 46:
Q. For me, this exact error happened during STARTTLS when my server (Postfix)
had a self-signed certificate so the client rejected it.
You can fix it by:
- Getting a proper certificate for your mail server (free from Lets Encrypt)
Or
- Making the client accept self-signed certificates.
