   You need to configure Mutt to trust the certificate that signed the
 certificate for the key you want to use. Otherwise, OpenSSL has no way to
 know that the key should be trusted.
 

Okay I will search for info on that, this seems to be right way

 I had a similar problem and within YAST checking thru the etc/sysconfig  
 files you have to ensure the Letters SSL are in place you can view and

 from within your usr/share/doc/packages  
  
 I suggest you check the example pages as I am not in front of our servers  at 
 present If needed I can collate the info and tell you tomorrow if you need  
 further assistance 
  

Umm just did a search in /etc/sysconfig and the only mention is to Postfix
which I removed in favour of exim.

 Can I email you tomorrow 
 I had the same problem your experiencing Until I put in the letters SSL i  
 got the same error on SuSe 9 pro
 I managed then to set up our site here 
 _http://www.mtlgroup.co.uk/shop1/index.php_ 
 (http://www.mtlgroup.co.uk/shop1/index.php) 
 Also where have you put your private.key, myserver.key you CA.txt the  
 yourdomain.csr
  
  

I imported the key from Opera, well exported it, them inported it. I have
not used a self made key, would that be the problem, just a thawte key. I
have just downloaded their root keys

 you would need links in your VHost SSL 
 to point to locations within the SuSe system
  
 What Apache are you running?
  
 Are your Httpd files in Etc/Apache2
 or usr/local/apache2
  

I am currently only using it for email purposes and maybe then will play a
bit more

Just sorted the problem, I exported the Thawte Personal Email key from Opera
and imported it and it works :)
