@dcmplus Welcome to the forums. Which version of FF are you using?

OK, so it isn't an out-of-date browser issue - good.

Are you using webmail or an email client to receive the emails?

Re: Can't open your email links using firefox

I find that very strange, assuming TB is up-to-date as well. Unfortunately I can't test it myself, as I am no longer with Plusnet, so get no communications from them.

Might be an idea if I ask the mods to move this to a more relevant board - if you agree?

Works perfectly for me, using FF94.0 on Linux.

Never used fedora - but I seem to remember it has caused problems for those using FF for a while.

My Linux distro is Zorin, BTW.

Re: Can't open your email links using firefox

Hi all,

sorry I am new to this forum, and I could not find a way to post a new, but I am also experiencing this same issue "Error code: SSL_ERROR_NO_CYPHER_OVERLAP" with Firefox 108.0.1 (64-bit) on Fedora release 37  machine.

Are there other users experiencing this issue, and has any one found a solution that does not compromise the security of the machine?

Vince

@annoyeddissatis This is a Fedora issue, as discovered previously - you need to ask them to sort it.
