NAME
       mkesmtpdcert - Create a secure SMTP test certificate

SYNOPSIS
       /usr/local/sbin/mkesmtpdcert

DESCRIPTION
       Secure ESMTP requires a valid, signed, X.509 certificate. The default
       location for the certificate file is
       /usr/local/share/courier/esmtpd.pem. The mkesmtpdcert generates a
       self-signed X.509 certificate, mainly for testing. For production use
       the X.509 certificate must be signed by a recognized certificate
       authority, in order for mail clients to accept the certificate.

       /usr/local/share/courier/esmtpd.pem must be owned by the courier user
       and have no group or world permissions. The mkesmtpdcert command will
       enforce this. To prevent an unfortunate accident, mkesmtpdcert will not
       work if /usr/local/share/courier/esmtpd.pem already exists.

       mkesmtpdcert requires OpenSSL to be installed.
