Outlook email security certificate

I am running Vista32 and get regular popups from outlook about my hostingrails mail account stating:

------------------------------
INTERNET SECURITY WARNING
The server you are connected to is using a security certificate that cannot be verified.  

The target principle name is incorrect

[view certificate]

Do you want to continue using this server?

[yes] [no]
-------------------------------

Viewing certificate leads you to:

"This CA Root certificate is not trusted.  To enable trust, install this certificate in gthe Trusted Root Authorities store.

Issued to: localhost
Issued by: localhost
Valid from 3/31/2008 to 3/31/2009

-------------------------------
And my outlook goes into "offline mode" for this account occasionally.  How can I fix this?

Hi - As the shared SSL cert for the mail server is installed on it's hostname, when connecting securely to the server, I hope using the server's host name in your outlook configuration may fix this issue.

Is there any info on how to do this?

Hi- It's not fair to give server name and account specific information on forums. So you may post a ticket to the support at support@hostingrails.com so that we can help you better.
