Hi,
I use mail.domain.com, so I needed another certificate. I got the
second certificate the same way I got the first, save for the change in
the domain name.
A self-signed certificate will trigger a warning for users. For this
reason, I did not use self-signed and I suspect you don't want to use a
self-signed, either.
