[stunnel-users] Mutual SSL Authentication

[Sandeep Kumar]

If I remember correctly, verify=3 is for verifying against locally installed
certificates and has nothing to do with mutual SSL authentication.

I think having verify=somenumber in both server and client will basically do
mutual authetication i.e server will check client's certificates and client
will check server's.
