Some catches
Authored by: mr_rangr on Jun 22, '04 10:57:38AM

As the linked post thread says, many settings must match:
You got the key from "mail.dreamhost.com" (using Dreamhost as an example)
Mail.app must be set to use mail.dreamhost.com, *not* mail.yourdomain.com
The Certificate you just grabbed ALSO must claim to be mail.dreamhost.com.

Some self-signers don't bother to put their actual hostname.domain in the certificate, so Mail will still complain because the names don't match.
