Please post in plain-text... - Your error: "[Hint: Subject CN in certificate not server name or identical to CA!?]"
means: the Common Name in the certificate is not the same as the ServerName in the URL - e.g. the certificate belongs to www.abcdef.com but you are using it in a server whose URL is www.uvwxyz.com. This makes the browser think your site is impersonating another site and so throws a warning. Where did you get the cert? Is it self-signed? If so, make a new one with the correct server name. Rgds, Owen Boyle PS How did you remove the "Reply-To" header which normally directs the replies back to the list? This is supposed to be a public mailing list, not your private resource. You are supposed to share the replies with others and allow them to go in the archive. Anyway, I cahnged it back... -----Original Message----- From: Inderjit S Gabrie [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Mittwoch, 29.
