It can make using activesync with windows mobile to sync with exchange
difficult or impossible, depending on the device/carrier.

Pardon my jump in here on this old thread but I’ve been on vacation
for a while and just now catching up.
Care to elaborate on the comment about wildcard cert problems?
We just purchased one and I’d like to start using it but if it is
going to cause problems, I’d appreciate any heads-up you can share.
Thanks.
Glen.

There isn't a lot to it.
Use the wizard on this page to generate the request:
https://www.digicert.com/easy-csr/exchange2007.htm
You need to include the real name of the server (server), the FQDN of
the server (server.domain.local), the OWA address (owa.domain.com) and
the autodiscover (autodiscover.domain.com). Most of the SSL providers
allow five domains. I usually recommend that the owa address is the
main common name.
Once you have generated the request command, paste in to PowerShell on
the server. You don't have to use Digicert.
You can then take the result and use it with your preferred vendor.
http://certificatesforexchange.com/ (disclaimer - that is my site)
does the certificates for US$59.99/year which are from GoDaddy but are
cheaper than GoDaddy are currently selling the certificates for. Don't
be tempted to use a wildcard certificate as there can be some issues
with their use.
After you get the certificate back from the supplier, you need to
import the result:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb124424.aspx
Finally you can enable the certificate for the services that you
require. For that I tend to use PowerGui (http://www.powergui.org)
which makes the process quick and easy.
For certificate acceptance you will have to adjust the URLs on some
services, and ensure that the clients are using the correct URL for
access. This is particularly important with POP3 and IMAP which can
often not cope with SSL prompts - for example you are using the IP
address for the server.
Simon.

Hello!
I need to get a certificate so that the warnings can go away for IMAP,
SMTP and OWA. I have done a bit of reading on this and it seems less
than straightforward. Has anyone done this and had an easy or hard
time with it? Who did you buy your cert from and do you have any
resources that clearly specify how to create the request and then
import the cert.
I want to have my ducks in a row before I do this because I know just
as it can make everything work smoothly it can expediously bring
everything to a screeching halt if not done correctly!
Thanks
