Are you talking just about warning pop-up in IMAP client? Or a real 
client-side certificate?

If first - either add servers cert to trusted certificates on each client 
(Thunderbird in your case). Or have your certificate signed by proper 
certificate authority that Thunderbird trusts. For that you'll need to 
create certificate signing request (csr). Certificate signers (like 
godaddy.com) have all the instructions you need. The type of cert you need 
they usually call "Apache cert", as appose to MS IIS. It'll cost you about 
$19.95 a year.

If you're talking client-side certs - i don't have any experience with them, 
but believe you'll either have them issue per each client by certificate 
certificate authority, or setup your own certificate server and add it to 
trusted CAs on the IMAP server.



cheers
