Thanks Ed. That's what I thought, but our security manager needed
convincing.

Our clients in this case are all internal to the organisation so I'll push
ahead with the MS certificate option.

Best wishes,

Eugene

There aren't any, really, except that the clients will have to trust your
certificate root.

Hi y'All,

We have some clients access their Exchange 5.5 mailboxes over the Internet
via POP3. We want to introduce POP3 with SSL. We have our own Microsoft
Certificate Server.

What are the disadvantages of using the MS certificates compared to using,
for example, Verisign? Or, where could I find a reasonable discussion of the
issues here?

Many thanks,

Eugene
