XMPP - SSL Handshake Failed on 2.8.0

[Ethan Blanton]

Christy Ankrom spake unto us the following wisdom:

> Last tried and worked on 6/10/11.

Please include the contents of a debug log (Help | Debug Window) from
the connect.  You may redact usernames and hostnames from the log if
you like.

This is sometimes caused by servers which do not correctly support
SSL.  It can also be caused by a server with a bad or broken
certificate (although normally, in that case, you get an option to
temporarily accept the bad certificate).  Without a debug log, it is
hard to say what is going on here.
