Hi Brian,
I attempted the solution you listed above but was unsuccessful. Do you have any other suggestions?

Also, for those that can’t access an owner’s ac level logging to a server I think the same server should be listed in the long headers / raw source view of a message to the account concerned as the server from which the message was received by. Mine for example was:

Received: from by tarago.websitewelcome.com

where tarago.websitewelcome.com is what you need to replace your incoming mailserver with.

Brian, you’re a genius! Thanks v. much for the tip – as you said it’s barely a problem, but every day, every bloody day it does start to wear.

@peter
1) you need to go to mediatemple.net and login (you’ll need the owner’s account login/password)
2) click “admin” for your domain
3) click “server guide”
4) look for the Primary Access Domain: http://sXXXXX.gridserver.com
5) replace mail.your-domain.com with sXXXXX.gridserver.com
6) fixed!

When this is applied in outgoing mail, it seems like there is no way for it to work because there is no visible View Certificate option when you get the error message – it just looks like it insists on getting a validly signed certificate. However, if you go to the server list it will suddenly pop up a dialogue similar to what is seen above and you can set it as a trusted certificate. Then, my emails started suddenly flowing out. I was almost shocked!

Thanks, Brian, for pointing me in the right direction!

i read your article with great interest

since i have been with mediatemple i have had enormous problems with the certificate problem

thing is i go thro someone else’s account, and do not know how to find MY own gridserver address (and it IS gridserver)

can you go thro the process with a bit more detail? or even better send a link with instructions

btw at the moment Mail cannot even READ data from the server (which is as bad as it gets!!!)

extremely tiresome!

are you using mediatemple too? if so, log in from the mediatemple.net site and look around the admin section.
