I continually see this message from Kmail:

The IP address of the host pop3.dataintellect.com does not match the one
the 
certificate was issued to
</quote>

Now think about that statement. Too test to which names the IPs resolve
pop3.dataintellect.com resolves with.
Use as mail server address "secure.cnchost.com" and no warning by your
mail client may appear any longer. If KMail checks for the IP too, then
complain at your hoster as they do bad things: forward resolution does
not match reverse!
