User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_12_6) AppleWebKit/604.4.7 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/11.0.2 Safari/604.4.7

Steps to reproduce:

I am a former Apple developer (Macnosy, The Debugger) using a 2011 MacBook Pro 
and OS X 10.12.6 & TB 59.b2
I filter all my email  through gmail.
When I press Cmd-Y to read my messages I sometimes get an Alert that TB has problems with the certificate identifing the web site : "pop.gmail.com:995"
The then press the confirm securty Exception button 


Actual results:

The message at the bottom of the TB window is NOT erased 
and I have to press Cmd-Y again to get it to read my latest email.
I have looked at the certificate values and really don't know what is wrong with them.


Expected results:

TB should just read my email.

Why does the certificate say AVG? Looks like AVG is trying to insert an intermediate certificate and that doesn't work?

I un installed AVG Antivirus and the problem appears to have gone away
