I use SSL based IMAP and POP3. SOm eof my clients has OutlookExpress6. They
recieve a warning the first time they connect to the Courier server after
startup of OE.

Which certificate files should I use for OE6 ?
Is it the .pem files as well ?

I did read how to import certificates in to OE6 but I can not admit it was
totally clear. If some on know how to do this I would be glad.
