Okay, I'm at my wit's end.  I would appreciate anyone who has experience
with non-VeriSign certificates with QPopper and/or Sendmail.  Specifically,
I am using Comodo InstantSSL.

According to their webfaq [1], the root cert is supposedly part of Windows
since 98SE, and MacOS 9 and up, and compatible with several modern browsers.

The problem I'm having is that no client wants to trust the certificate as
installed in QPopper and Sendmail.  Well, Outlook Express does, but not
before barfing on the POP3 server.  Eudora, Pegasus, and Netscape Messenger
all pop up warning dialogues saying the root is not trusted.

I'm hoping this is just a server configuration error.  I spent the money on
a real cert because I wanted to be "legit," but if I knew it would be this
much of a problem I just would have done like everyone else and sign my own
cert.

As usual, I appreciate any help I can get.  Sendmail offers please reply
privately.
