Outlook Proxy certificate Issue
I have created a selfsigned certificate while I wait to get a new one setup. however I have a strange issue I need help on. I ran the commends to create the self signed cert in exchange management shell. i can see that the services are assigned to it. When I go to IIS and check directory security I see the self signed cert is there. However when ever i start Outlook remotely I get a cert error (8) and it won't connect. I viewed the cert and it's an old one that expired in 2009. I copied the thumbprint down but was unable to find in in exchange managment shell? Where else should I be looking to remove this old cert so my self signed will be used until I get another 3rd partyoe up and running?

Hi, Please understand that the thumbprint is different from the previous certficate even though it's cloned. Thus, you need to export the new certificate and install it on the remote client computer. After that, please check this issue again. Thanks Allen

I have since got my third party cert installed (godaddy) and enabled for the usually services (imap, pop, um, IIS, SMTP). My new cert is showing up on the autodiscover site. however when ever I connect with outlook anywhere the cert it keeps pulling is the old cert that has expired. I have removed all the certs that are no longer valid (using powershell) The thumbprint from that cert that is expired is not showing up in exhange managment shell. HELP!

Hi, Did you try this issue on another computer? If possible, please test this issue on a different computer remotely. Additionally, please run get-exchangecertificate |fl command in EMS, then post the information here. Thanks Allen

Hi, Thanks for your update. I didn't find any incorrect configuration for the certificate. As mentioned above, did you test this issue on another computer? Whether only one computer have this issue? Thanks Allen

Found a solution that worked for me! Turns out to be a bug with Exchange 2007 in some instances. Once I updated to Service Pack 2 and rollup 4 the issues has gone away and I'm pulling the correct Cert now. Thanks for your help Allen!
