A lynx.cfg on another System tells me this:

# If FORCE_SSL_PROMPT is set to "yes", then questionable conditions, such as
# self-signed certificates will be ignored.  If set to "no", these will be
# reported, but not attempted.  The default "prompt" permits the user to 
make
# this choice on a case-by-case basis.

So I would try

FORCE_SSL_PROMPT:YES
