Exchange-20102013-POP-or-IMAP-with-Wildcard-Certificate-activation

Posted by admin on 03.01.2018

 

You try to activate a WILDCARD Certificate for IMAP or POP Services for Exchange 2010.

Either GUI or Powershell this does not work as wanted:

Enable-ExchangeCertificate -Server ‘ exchange2010’ -Services ‘IMAP, IIS, SMTP’ -Thumbprint ‘C22E2AE9FC07C7DA55454522B0E0ACF996C8’

 ERROR:

This certificate with thumbprint C22E2AE9FC0646473449422B0E0ACF996C8 and subject ‘*.butsch.ch’ cannot used for IMAP SSL/TLS connections because the subject is not a Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN). Use command Set-IMAPSettings to set X509CertificateName to the FQDN of the service.

 

Solution:

Is to set the parameter with SET-POPSETTINGS and set-IMAPSETTINGS:

Set-POPSettings -X509CertificateName exchange2010internalname.butsch.ch

Set-IMAPSettings -X509CertificateName exchange2010internalname.butsch.ch

Restart the services:

restart-service MSExchangePOP3

restart-service MSExchangeIMAP4

Check what you changed:

Get-popsettings

Get-imapsettings

Set-ImapSettings -ExternalConnectionSetting {mysamplenamethirdleveldomain.butsch.ch:993:SSL}
