This bug holds good for both mutt and mutt-patched.

I start with an empty certificate_file and run mutt, the session looks like
this:

  OUT: -- Mutt: TLS/SSL Certificate check
  OUT: (r)eject, accept (o)nce, (a)ccept always
  
  IN: a
  
  OUT: Certificate saved
  OUT: Password for app...@mail.appaji.net:
  
  IN: password
  
  ALL OK
  
  QUIT
  
  OUT: -- Mutt: TLS/SSL Certificate check
  OUT: (r)eject, accept (o)nce, (a)ccept always
  
  IN: a
  
  OUT: Warning: Couldn't save certificate

I poked around mutt code a bit and it looks like the failure is from here:

mutt_ssl_gnutls.c : tls_check_one_certificate

822         if ((fp = fopen (SslCertFile, "a")))
823         {
...
830           if (certerr_nottrusted)
831           {
832             done = 0;
833             ret = gnutls_pem_base64_encode_alloc ("CERTIFICATE", certdata,
834                                                   &pemdata);
835             if (ret == 0)
836             {
837               if (fwrite (pemdata.data, pemdata.size, 1, fp) == 1)
838               {
839                 done = 1;
840               }
...
846         if (!done)
847         {
848           mutt_error (_("Warning: Couldn't save certificate"));
849           mutt_sleep (2);
850         }

Turns out that certerr_nottrusted was 0 and it is set on the basis of certstat
in the same function.  I don't have a log of further investigation but AFAIR,
certstat was GNUTLS_CERT_INSECURE_ALGORITHM.

Please let me know if you need more information.
