I have been having some problems with this too, and here is what you need to
check.
- Use Outlook Express 5.x (on some 4.x installations I haven't been able to
make it work)
- Make sure that your root (CA) certificate is installed in Windows (listed
in the Certification authorities tab in the security settings) and that you
trust this CA.
- Make sure that the e-mail address in the certificate is the same as the
e-mail address specified for your account.
- Try creating the PKCS#12 files with the '-keyex' option
- If you are using Outlook Express 5.01 and are trying to specify the
certificate for digital signature, make sure that this certificate has
KeyUsage=digtalSignature, nonRepudiation (as a minimum).
