| Email Client: | Mac Mail |
| Error Message: |
Mail can't verify the identity of "mail.domain.com". The certificate for this server is invalid. You might be connecting to a server that is pretending to be "mail.domain.com" which could put your confidential information at risk. Do you want to connect to the server anyway?

| Solution: |
When Mac Mail connects to your server, it by default attempts to connect using a SSL connection. On shared servers, the SSL certificate will look similar to secure108.inmotionhosting.com. Mac mail is throwing an error because it is not seeing a SSL certificate for "mail.YourDomain.com", and instead it is seeing the secure108.inmotionhosting.com certificate. This is common, and it is safe to ignore. Click "Connect" to ignore this message and continue. To verify it is an inmotionhosting.com certificate, click "Show Certificate", and you should see it listed.
