Dane testing and posttls-finger ???

When I try "posttls-finger dane.sys4.de" I get the following.  I have 
emphasized a couple of areas in the following text that cause me some 
concern.

posttls-finger: Connected to dane.sys4.de[194.126.158.134]:25

Certificate verification fails and I wind up with an untrusted connection.
Is this something I did or is there a real problem?
