What server does this use? also, what are the incoming and outgoing server names for yahoo?

How do you change the common name (CN) of the SSL Yahoo smtp server security certificate that Outlook 2003 use?

  • s? This seems to need to be done to correct the following error, after researching the error message: "The common name on the certificate does not match the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of the URL that is stored in the certificate.", which generates the following error every time Outlook logs on to the smtp server [i.e., receives mail; it logs onto the outgoing server (smtp.plus.mail.yahoo.com), first when "sending/receiving" mail, or "synchronizing" its local folders with the mail server's outbox and inbox]: "The server you are connected to is using a security certificate that could not be verified. The certificate's CN name does not match the passed value. Do you want to continue using this server?" However, the other email client that I use with the SAME Yahoo smtp server on the same email account from the same computer does not ever generate this error. However, there doesn't appear to be a Yahoo or Outlook certificate stored in the lists of certificates (Tools > Internet Options > Content > Certificates). Also, clearing the "SSL state" unfortunately does not solve the problem.

You have to fill out forms at the local courhouse and pay some processing fees and then the name change will be official. Don't forget the DMV too!
