ErrorException: Email to example@example.com failed: stream_socket_enable_crypto(): SSL operation failed with code 1. OpenSSL Error messages: error:14090086:SSL routines:ssl3_get_server_certificate:certificate verify failed - library/Zend/Mail/Protocol/Smtp.php:20

xenforo keeps throwing these errors, while the ssl cert is a verified wildcard certificate, it's properly installed to postfix and other programs don't complain but as we look at it the setting for mail host used to be "localhost" so I tried setting it to the domainname the certs are for, but as we look at the error xenforo still sends an HELO to localhost, how do i fix this?
 
It's not sending a HELO to localhost. That's what it's reporting the local server as. That part should be unrelated to your error, as it's the SMTP client throwing the error.

Is this a self signed certificate, or is it signed by an authority (that would be trusted by your OS/OpenSSL)? If it's the former, that's the issue. If it's the latter, it sounds like you may not have the correct openssl.cafile/openssl.capath specified in your php.ini (see here for the changes: http://php.net/manual/en/migration56.openssl.php; here for a resolution example in OS X whose approach may not be the same as for you: https://akrabat.com/ssl-certificate-verification-on-php-5-6/)
