[issue35422] misleading error message from ssl.get_server_certificate() when bad port

Ruluk <juank_nino at hotmail.com> added the comment:

I would still validate the error somewhere, maybe before reaching the OpenSSL library, because that same error is also shown for other cases. E.g:

http_connection = HTTPSConnection("localhost")
http_connection.request("POST", my_url, my_body, my_headers)

The use of an HTTPS connection for localhost effectively produces the same "SSL: WRONG VERSION NUMBER" error.
