hello Alvin,
I I have some mixed results..., it works, but depending on the lookout! 
version, it just asks first time about server certificate not being signed by 
an authority and after I accept it, thats it, or, it warns me every time that 
the server name and certificate do not match (the users will not like this ! 
-being asked every time, that is-);
the certificate is the default one, which was generated at install, which 
leads me to another question: how do I generate a self signed certificate?
would an apache generated one work? (I did that before and I know how to do 
it)
It doesn't say anywhere in the doc (/usr/share/doc/courier*), I don't have a 
Makefile, nothing!

thanks, dragos
