cannot proxy to service over SSL with self-signed cert

[laurie71]

Proxying to a service using SSL with a self-signed certificate results in an error: "Proxy settings are NOT ENABLED". That's misleading, given that proxying a service and using an HTTP proxy for outbound requests are unrelated. The actual error is an SSLPeerUnverifiedException, thrown from httpclient.execute() in ClientExecuteProxy. Unfortunately, that gets caught and Mockey reports a problem with the proxy configuration. The SSL error is logged, but it's easily missed...

At minimum I'd like to see the problem surfaced in the service history (rather than mis-diagnosed as a problem with the HTTP proxy config). Better yet would be a way to allow self-signed certs, as Mockey is currently unusable in this situation (and I don't have control over the remote service to either allow HTTP requests or replace the self-signed cert).

I'll look into this in mid-january; currently on vacation.
