To Request a Server Certificate

You request a server certificate by opening your server in Console and running the Certificate Setup Wizard. You can access the Wizard from the Console menu or from the Messaging Server Encryption tab. Using the Wizard, you perform the following tasks:

Steps

1. Generate a certificate request.

2. Send the request by email to the certificate authority (CA) that is to issue the certificate.

   When the email response from the CA arrives, you save it as a text file and install it using the Certificate Setup Wizard.
