Name

mkesmtpdcert — Create a secure SMTP test certificate

Synopsis

/usr/sbin/mkesmtpdcert

DESCRIPTION

Secure ESMTP requires a valid, signed, X.509 certificate. The default location for the certificate file is /etc/courier/esmtpd.pem. The mkesmtpdcert generates a self-signed X.509 certificate, mainly for testing. For production use the X.509 certificate must be signed by a recognized certificate authority, in order for mail clients to accept the certificate.
