The proper way to fix this is to complain to the ISP and request that
they issue proper SSL certificates.

But I suspect they do use proper SSL certificates

I dunno how to download / extract the certificate to check, but I 
suspect they list "pop3.freezone.co.uk" under "subjectAltName", instead 
of "commonName"

openssl s_client -debug -connect pop3.freezone.co.uk:995

(doesn't work for me, no route to host -> may be firewalled)

I hope supporting proper SSL certificates in Fetchmail will be easier 
than getting my ISP to support Fetchmail ; )

That depends on where the bug really is.
