Any recommendations for a CA? > <http://www.thawte.com/products/> It's not the only one available. Unfortunately, Thawte stopped providing free certificates late in 2009 (see below); however, Comodo Group, as an example, do still provide them for free. See http://www.comodo.com/home/email-security/free-email-certificate.php I hope this helps -- Regards Andy Important Thawte® Personal E-mail Certificate Holder Notice Thawte Personal E-mail Certificates and Web of Trust are being discontinued Over the past several years, security compliance requirements have become more restrictive, while the technology infrastructure necessary to meet these requirements has expanded greatly. Despite our strong desire to continue providing the Thawte Personal E-mail Certificate and Web of Trust services, the ever-expanding standards and technology requirements will outpace our ability to maintain these services at the high level of quality we require. As a result, Thawte Personal E-Mail Certificates and theWeb of Trust will be discontinued on November 16, 2009 and will no longer be available after that date. Deciding to conclude these services was a difficult decision for us to bear, specifically because of the community that has been built around these products over the years.
