If the IP address matches your mail server's IP address use it as the mail server name in Outlook. If the name is different, ping the server name used in the certificate.If the server name in the ping results matches the name on the certificate, use it as the mail server name in Outlook.Type ping to find your IP address and the hosts server name.Type cmd on the Start menu to open a Command Prompt.Since GoDaddy lets you use either server name, you can eliminate the error message if you use the server names. The easiest fix is to change the server name, if your mail provider supports other server names.įor example, in the dialog in this screenshot, the server certificate was issued to but I'm using as the server name in my account settings. This is a common problem when the administrator uses self-published certificates.

This warning indicates the server name does not match the name in your account settings, or in the case of Exchange server, that the address in the autodiscover file does not match the address the server is using. The certificate is self signed so I always just click Yes to continue using the server/email account, but how do I get Outlook to remember? Every time I run the program I get a popup: "Internet Security Warning" The server you are connected to is using a security certificate that cannot be verified. I have a SSL IMAP email account that I just setup in Outlook.
