I noticed today that my secure email was using the self signed cert. I did some poking around and saw that dovecot and posfix might be to blame. I went into: vi /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf and added: ssl_cert_file = /var/www/server.example.com/ssl/server.example.com.crt ssl_key_file = /var/www/server.example.com/ssl/server.example.com.key and then: vi /etc/postfix/main.cf and added: smtpd_tls_cert_file = /var/www/server.example.com/ssl/server.example.com.crt smtpd_tls_key_file = /var/www/server.example.com/ssl/server.example.com.key Everything seems to work now with ssl/tls with my Godaddy cert. Is this correct?
Thats correct. Here is a more detailed guide to setup all services to use a official ssl cert: http://www.howtoforge.com/securing-...h-a-free-class1-ssl-certificate-from-startssl it does not matter if the cert is from godaddy or startssl for this setup.
