Summary:
Untrusted Connection during subscribe to mailing list

Detailed description
I am trying to subscribe to the texmex-commits mailing list and I get the following message:

This Connection is Untrusted

You have asked Firefox to connect
securely to lists.r-forge.r-project.org, but we can't confirm that your connection is secure.

Normally, when you try to connect securely,
sites will present trusted identification to prove that you are
going to the right place. However, this site's identity can't be verified.

What Should I Do?

If you usually connect to
this site without problems, this error could mean that someone is
trying to impersonate the site, and you shouldn't continue.

Technical Details
lists.r-forge.r-project.org uses an invalid security certificate.

The certificate is only valid for the following names:
r-forge.r-project.org , http://www.r-forge.r-project.org

(Error code: ssl_error_bad_cert_domain)

-----


I am using Mozilla Firefox on a Windows Vista PC (this OS was not listed in your drop-down list of options)

Thanks for your help!

Known and unfixable since wildcard certificates are too expensive.
