T-Bird is similar to Mozilla Mail, so:
- When the grey 'warning' box appears as you try to connect, pay attention to
the click boxes offered.
- What you want (eventually) is to accept the certificate and its Certificate
Authority permanently (or 'to expiry').
The MUA will store what it needs where it needs it.
There are menus to 'manage' certs and CA', so you can discard or replace these
later. IIRC, the stock cert will expire in one year, so you will need to create
a new one at some point, do all this again for each MUA.
HTH,
