Yahoo mail domain fails cert UCC match #159

When trying to log into Yahoo! Mail (https://mail.yahoo.com/) you are redirected to http://us.mg4.mail.yahoo.com/neo/launch?.rand= . Using HTTPS Everywhere this usually works, even though it is listed as 'buggy'. But now with Convergence, the certificate is consistently rejected, saying that the hostname ('us.mg4.mail.yahoo.com') does not match a hostname in the cert's list.

That list, for reference, is: mail.yahoo.com, *.mail.yahoo.net, *.ymail.com, *.msg.yahoo.com, *.flickr.com, *.flic.kr, *.fantasysports.yahoo.com, *.secure.yahoo.com, help.yahoo.com, yep.video.yahoo.com, *.mail.yahoo.com

Even after attempting to manually add a permanent security exception, the exception page keeps popping up. I have to disable HTTPS for Yahoo! Mail to be able to log in, when Convergence is enabled.

us.mg4.mail.yahoo.com doesn't match the cert's Common Name or the
subjectAltName list, so this is a problem with Yahoo's certificate.
