Hi Colin,

If the certificate that's installed on the server is *.mainline.co.uk 
and you're connecting to a hostname within the mainline.co.uk domain, 
then that's fine.

If the certificate is for one domain and the hostname used on your FTP 
client is a different name then you'll get a certificate mismatch.
