See the response on the bug item,
https://www.thewildbeast.co.uk/claws-mail/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=4568

viz.

* There aleady is the option "Automatically accept valid TLS certificates"

* It is an account-specific option.

* Providers do not normally change their CA often.

* Certs are also not updated often, even from Let's Encrypt.

This change would save you from one mouse click, say, every 3 months, or IOW
4 mouse clicks a year.

Probably a developer implementing this would take up more than your lifetime's
worth of clicks.
