POP3 accounts say "connecting to <pop3 url>..." forever, or display it then disappear. IMAP accounts say "Checking mail server capabilities..." forever. Accounts affected: Outlook POP3 x2 Gmail POP3 x2 Yahoo IMAP Outlook IMAP x2

I do not use any self-signed certificates. The issue began after the install of update 31.5.

Error console shows: Timestamp: 2/26/2015 6:25:04 PM Error: [Exception...

Options->Security->Passwords->Saved Passwords shows nothing in the listbox, though I've never looked there to know if it should.
