Verify return code: 21 (unable to verify the first certificate)

Why can't you verify it? Does it perhaps not chain up to the CA
certificate at which I have just pointed you? Or maybe the expiry date
is confusing you. But you're not going to tell me.

Sometimes you will say "unable to get local issuer certificate" instead.
"Unable to get"? The file's there; could you not read it? Was it the
wrong shade of pink? Evidently I am supposed to know what's wrong by my
Kewl Psychic Powerz.

Still, I have seen how much worse the alternatives are.

Hate. (And sleep.)
