41.13 Certificate chains
------------------------

The file named by tls_certificate may contain more than one certificate. This
is useful in the case where the certificate that is being sent is validated by
an intermediate certificate which the other end does not have. Multiple
certificates must be in the correct order in the file. First the host's
certificate itself, then the first intermediate certificate to validate the
issuer of the host certificate, then the next intermediate certificate to
validate the issuer of the first intermediate certificate, and so on, until
finally (optionally) the root certificate. The root certificate must already be
trusted by the recipient for validation to succeed, of course, but if it's not
preinstalled, sending the root certificate along with the rest makes it
available for the user to install if the receiving end is a client MUA that can
interact with a user.
