Manage Multiple Certificates
6
The multiple certificate feature allows you to use Web Based Management to manage each certificate 
installed on your machine. In Web Based Management, navigate to the CA Certificate screen to view 
certificate content, delete, or export your certificates.
You can store up to three CA certificates to use SMTP over SSL and/or POP3 over SSL.
We recommend storing one less certificate than allowed, reserving an empty spot in case of certificate 
expiration. When a certificate expires, import a new certificate into the reserved spot, and then delete the 
expired certificate. This ensures that you avoid configuration failure.
NOTE
When you use SSL for SMTP communications, you do not have to choose a certificate. The necessary 
certificate will be chosen automatically.
