Title:
  Empathy does not remember to trust connections with self-signed
  certificates.

Status in “empathy” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I use Empathy to connect to my Google Talk account. In this case,
  Google Talk is for Google Apps, so the chat address is not
  <name>@gmail.com or <name>@googletalk.com but <name>@example.com.

  Every time Empathy starts up, it prompts me to allow the connection to
  proceed even though the certificate is invalid (since the common name
  in the certificate is Google, not Example). I accept, and also check
  "Remember this setting." The "Remember this setting" doesn't work
  though - every time I log out and log back in, Empathy prompts me.
