A &quot;3rd party&quot; certificate (GeoTrust, Thawte, VeriSign, Go Daddy for example) will take care of your problem. You can confirm if this is in fact the case by running the Microsoft Remote Connectivity Analyzer, testing Exchange ActiveSync (<a href="https://www.testexchangeconnectivity.com/">https://www.testexchangeconnectivity.com/</a>).</p><div style="clear:both;"></div><img src="http://msmvps.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=1819314" width="1" height="1">ActiveSyncSSL CertificatesWindows 8
