This is what I ran into today. It was in Outlook 2007 and when ever the user replied to a message she got the following warning box:
Internet Security Warning
The server you are connected to is using a security certificate that cannot be verified
The target principal name is incorrect
- View Certificate
Do you want to continue using this server?
- Yes / No
You can continue after selecting yes, but this can get annoying very fast if your job revolved around email.
So I searched, and found the following steps to help me:
1. Open IE and select Tools from the top bar.
2. Select Internet options to open the properties.
3. Next select the Content tab
4. Under ‘Certificates’ click the ‘Clear SSL state’ button.
5. Click on OK on the next window that pops up.
6. Click apply and then across the top click on the Advanced tab.
7. Click restore defaults and last click apply.
You may or may not need to restart the pc. In my case I didn’t need to restart the computer. But the fix is so simple…. right!
