Answer 1

This will help you bypass certificate process and get directly to ssl host

MailSSLSocketFactory sf = null;
try
{
    sf = new MailSSLSocketFactory();
}
catch (GeneralSecurityException e)
{
    e.printStackTrace();
}
        sf.setTrustAllHosts(true);

Properties pop3Props = new Properties();
pop3Props.setProperty("mail.pop3.ssl.enable", "true");
pop3Props.setProperty("mail.protocol.ssl.trust", "pop3.live.com");
pop3Props.put("mail.pop3s.ssl.socketFactory", sf);
pop3Props.setProperty("mail.pop3s.port", "995");

Session session = Session.getInstance(pop3Props);

try
{
/* Get a Store object*/
   Store store = session.getStore("pop3s");
//process further activity 
}
