Okay, I realize I'm a newbie at this and it's
incredibly complicated and all, but the bats in my
belfry are starting to go cross-eyed.

I have Solaris 2.7 clients and servers.  UW imap-2000
with openssl-0.9.6, trying to set up secure email with
netscape and pine4.21(with the ssl patch) clients. 
Not authenticated because I'll be using a self-signed
certificate.

Everything compiled great with gcc.

So the question is: what EXACTLY do I need now?  I
created a self-signed certificate using "CA.pl
-newca", "CA.pl -newcert", "CA.pl -signcert".  I
copied it to /usr/local/ssl/certs/imapd.pem.

Do I need to create certificates for each user who is
going to want to get at their mail on this server?  Do
I need to create a server certificate also and put it
into /usr/local/ssl/certs?  What do I call it? 
Perhaps I should just have myself certified?

If there's documentation on how to do this, I sure as
h*ll haven't been able to find it.  A friendly finger
pointing in the direction of the Rosetta stone would
be vastly appreciated.

Please help before I end up jabbing a pencil into
someone's eye.

Thanks mucho.
