Title:
  repeated asking to verify a certificate. enough already, I already
  approved it!!

Status in Chat app, and Telepathy user interface:
  Confirmed
Status in “empathy” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: empathy

  on connecting, I get the pop-up

  This connection is untrusted. Would you like to continue anyway?

  because I am using gtalk over a Google Apps For Your Domain, the
  certificate does not match the host domain, and yes, I realize that
  CAN spell trouble, but in this case it is perfectly safe, and yet I
  have to accept this certificate three times every single time I start
  the app; there needs to be an exceptions list that offers to save this
  current exception for future reference and not bother me about it
  again unless the teledyn.com certificate is signed by someone OTHER
  than google.

  they say a bug is a feature that cannot be turned off; I appreciate
  the test for authenticity, but how many times must I verify the same
  fact?
