samba - Oct 2008 - problems connecting to https list server

When I attempt to contact the server for this list

  https://lists.samba.org/

with Seamonkey or Mozilla it refuses and puts up a message:

  !
  You have requested an invalid certificate.  Please contact the 
  server administrator or email correspondent and give them the
  following information:

  Your certificate contains the same serial number as another
  certificate issued by the certificate authority.  Please get a
  new certificate containing a unique serial number. 

Just me, or are other people seeing this too?

Thanks,

Everyone sees that.  It is a self-signed certificate.

No.  Not a self-signed cert.  We run our own CA.  but the reason
for the mesg is that the brower has an old expired cert from
a samba.org addess left around.

I should really get around to fixing this

In the meantime, how does one induce a Mozilla/Seamonkey browser to get
past that dialog and allow a connection?  The only option on the
dialog is "OK", and clicking that does not connect.
