Thunderbird no longer asking for explicit certificate approval

Hi,

In the past, when I configured my Proton Mail account in Thunderbird, it would explicitly ask for a certificate approval right away.

Recently, it sends a notification (which is sometimes difficult to see) which you need to click to get the pop-up to approve the certificate.

I imagine this affects more than just Proton Mail accounts.

No error messages appear in Thunderbird. The status only shows "Checking mail server capabilities".

Was this behavior perhaps changed in a recent version?

I am using Thunderbird 128.5.2esr on Windows.
