    outlook and unsigned certificates

    Hi,

    I'm connecting to an email server using secure pop3, however the server only has a self signed certificate, it results in the following message:
    Internet Security Warning

    Te server you are connected to is using a security certificate that could not be verified

    A certificate chain processed, but terminated in a root certificate which is not trusted b the trust provider

    Do you want to continue using this server
    Does anyone have any idea how to either disable this message permanently, or add the certificate to the trust provider?

    The Pop3 server would need to puy a 3rd party verified certificate.
    www.thawte.com is quite good for these.

    ya, i was hoping for some way to just tell outlook to accept the self signed one. It isn't my mail server and i can't really request they get a signed certificate
