Comment (by dx):

 The point is that it's not just an expired certificate, but some SSL
 related misconfiguration that is resulting in abnormally terminating the
 connection during the handshake - and it's the server that is closing the
 connection, pidgin doesn't even get to throw NSS errors.

 If you can reproduce this issue and confirm that it works with other
 clients but not with pidgin, that might be worth looking at. But it seems
 it's already fixed on the server side?
