Thanks for the details Bill. I'm definitely not an expert on these issues and I kind of just decided to live with it since it only affects “older” macOS releases.

Servers like updates.mailmate-app.com should be reconfigured to send only the server certificate and its immediate issuer cert as the server's trust chain, NOT including the version of "ISRG Root X1" which is signed by the expired cert. That would break a DIFFERENT subset of older clients (which don't trust the ISRG root by default) which is probably why even Let's Encrypt's own servers are still sending the quasi-bogus cert.

Let me know (off list) if you think it would be fairly easy to help me change this on my server to avoid this issue :)
