I didn't think that Win8 included a mail client any more. Which email
client are you using?
I concur with Sebastian.
If you'd like a free certificate, you can get one at cacert.org. Their
root certs aren't recognized by most (any?) programs though, so you'll
also need to install the cacert.org root certificate on every client
host which will be accessing your server using TLS/SSL (TLS/SSL is
highly recommended). This is ok for soho type use, but if you have more
than a handful of devices/users, purchasing a certificate may be your
best route.
Either that or use an email client which allows you to accept a
certificate that cannot be verified, which most do afaik. It's not much
of a security risk to do so.

If you are planning to run a real server you should consider getting a valid
SSL certificate. The ones supplied with qmailtoaster are self signed and will
be rejected by mail clients. Most clients allow to accept self signed
certificates, as for windows 8 I am not sure but Google might help.

I'm trying to set up my first Windows 8 laptop and the email client won't allow
me to set up my email because it says I need to install an SSL certificate
because I'm using SSL for the IMAP connection. I'm using the cert that got
installed when I installed QMT on the server. Anyone have any insights on how
to make this work?
