I have been running sylpheed as my mail client since installing linux. Today when I tried to launch it, it runs fullscreen but everything is white with no buttons or anything useful. I can't access my menu behind it either. I tried unmerging it and emerging sylpheed-claws, but it had the same problem and gave me the error message
Code:
 ssl_init: warning, can't open /etc/ssl/cert.pem
ssl_init: it means that certificates' signatures won't appear as Correct,
ssl_init: even if they should.  Check your openssl install.

The only thing i've changed today was I installed quakeforge. I don't really know what happened to it.
(Edit) - I just tested it as root and it works fine and still gave me the same error, so that is not the problem. i tried deleting my Mail folder and re-emerging, but that didn't solve the problem.

The warning is from OpenSSL, it is harmless if you don't use SSL for mail access. To hunt down the real error check ~/.sylpheed/sylpheed.log and try starting sylpheed as
Code:
sylpheed --debug
