Server to accept messages only through a TLS connection.
Click a Browse button next

CA certificate: A CA
certificate is usually used for verifying SMTP clients. However, IMSVA does
not verify the client and only uses the CA certificate for enabling
the TLS connection.
Only upload this file if it is provided
to you together with the public key. Otherwise, this file is not
mandatory for enabling a TLS connection.
Private key: The SMTP client encrypts
a random number using IMSVA SMTP
server's public key and an encryption key to generate the session
keys.
IMSVA SMTP
server then uses the private key to decrypt the random number in
order to establish the secure connection.This key must be uploaded
to enable a TLS connection.
SMTP server certification: The IMSVA SMTP
server's public key made available to the SMTP clients for generating
the session keys.
This key must be uploaded to enable a TLS
connection.
Click Upload to save the file
on the IMSVA server.
Select Enable Outgoing Transport Layer
Security to protect outbound messages, if desired.
