Hi Steve,
You could create your own private CA then sign your Dovecot certificate with the CA cert and alpine should then trust it.
Best Regards

The directory or the certs isn't the problem. Alpine sees the self-signed cert I just made, but complains because it's self-signed, and gives me the choice between saying "yes" every time, and just not checking for certs at all.
"sees the self-signed cert"? Did you've added it as trusted to the CA as Greg said and wrote what to do?
No. I don't want to deal with a third party "Trusted Party": I want it self-signed. What I was looking for was a way Alpine could be set to check for a cert, warn if the cert is conflicting, but not warn if it's self-signed.
Thanks,
