Hello Carsten, Meanwhile my e-mail provider changed name and address, and unfortunately I also stopped using Icedove to synchronize it.
However, I recall that the main point here was that Icedove was not recognizing the same certificate chains that Iceweasel would - I never had to manually accept anything on Iceweasel for the same chain. If meanwhile the CA repositories were updated, this should no longer be an issue. As I won't be able to reproduce this issue, feel free to close it.
