let me replay to my self: outlook does not send certificate for pops sessions (and maybe it never will learn how to do it). so, if anyone out there wants to use this 'feature' against outlook clients, the answer is: use stunnel (there are god examples on http://www.stunnel.org/examples/ and the faq might help) or implement the webmail (e.g., squirellmail)!
