So, I installed iRedMail successfully following this tutorial: https://digitalocean.com/community/articles/how-to-install-iredmail-on-ubuntu-12-04-x64
I also installed a RapidSSL certificate and everything works great when pull up the site in my browser (cognizemail.co). And this certificate checker says it’s installed correctly: https://knowledge.rapidssl.com/support/ssl-certificate-support/index?page=content&actp=CROSSLINK&id=SO9556
I can send and receive mail just fine, but the issue I’m having is that I have to make a security exception every time I connect or set up an account in mail (OS X). It comes up saying the certificate location/province is GuangDong, China. WTF? That’s not the location I specified when I configured the certificate.

It seems to do this regardless of whether I use the www.
This has been driving me nuts! Does anyone have an idea of what could be going on here?
Thanks :)

I put cognizemail.co.crt, cognizemail.key, intermediate.crt, and RapidSSL_CA_bundle.pem in /etc/ssl
<br>
<br>I have these lines in /etc/apache2/sites-available/default-ssl …
<br>SSLEngine on
<br>SSLProtocol all
<br>SSLCertificateFile /etc/ssl/cognizemail.co.crt
<br>SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/ssl/cognizemail.key
<br>SSLCACertificateFile /etc/ssl/intermediate.crt
<br>
<br>The intermediate.crt is the CA Bundled one from here: https://knowledge.rapidssl.com/support/ssl-certificate-support/index?page=content&actp=CROSSLINK&id=AR1548
<br>
<br>I tried a few other things like: “dpkg-reconfigure ca-certificates” and "update-ca-certificates
RapidSSL_CA_bundle.pem and intermediate.crt contain the same text. I think I just need intermediate.crt, but I’m not sure.
