Nation forums user Jerry Van Hoy pointed us in the right direction for the fix. Users toto-w and Grabber5.0 discovered the links to use for the fix and user DMeister made a short tutorial that is pasted below. Thanks all! 1) Go to https://s.outlook.com or https://m.hotmail.com 2) When prompted, Trust Certificate 3) Go on Email and sync the email accounts and all will properly hotmail certificate android sync again I came home from work to find two error messages, each one associated with my Hotmail and Outlook email account: "Security Certificate Expired". Users on the webOS Nation forums started reporting early this morning that their Hotmail and Outlook.com accounts were giving certificate errors. It seems the issue is not prevalent across the board as some users claim to not have the same problem. UPDATE 2: As it turns out, Microsoft was hit with the surprise as well. Many companies use the GlobalSign Root CA for certificate authentication and it was that CA that expired. You can read about it here. It seems the issue is quite self explanatory really, but this means that on Microsoft's side, the certificates they issued for webOS's method of accessing the server to sync emails expired on 28 January 2014. All we can hope is for Microsoft to issue a new one. If that is in fact the case and if they will fix it are the important questions. The issue has already been brought up to Microsoft. Otherwise, we'll look to the homebrew community to save the day…again.

Windows 7: Certificate problem in Outlook/hotmail 16 Sep 2014 #1 Tiffany127 Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit 8 posts Certificate problem in Outlook/hotmail https://pivotce.com/2014/01/29/hotmailoutlook-com-accounts-misbehaving/ I have a 'hotmail.co.uk'address which I retained when Hotmail shifted to Outlook. When the search comes up in the address bar it says something about 'dub livemail'. I have had no problems at all with accessing or sending mail. Then, yesterday I suddenly start getting a message saying there is a problem with the site's certificate not being issued by a trusted http://www.sevenforums.com/browsers-mail/345785-certificate-problem-outlook-hotmail.html authority and that it may be fraudulent. I usually access my account via a link in my favourites bar. I thought perhaps something had happened to the link, so tried to go direct to the Outlook log in page. I get the same message appearing when I click on the Outlook log in. I read around this in Google and noted the problem may be related to incorrect date/ time settings on my computer. However,these seem to be accurate . I can access live mail OK but not Outlook/hotmail. I don't think there is a security issue as I have up to date securitysettings and scans are not showing any issues. I am a senior person and any simplistic advice would be welcomed. I don't want to press the 'ignore and proceed to site 'button re the certificate, as I am frightened what nasties I might be allowing. Please any advice?

Warning" dialog box with the message; The server you are connected to is using a security certificate that cannot be verified. The target principal name is incorrect. I clicked on "View Certificate" and installed the certificate, but I still get this dialog each time I start Outlook. Clicking "Yes" each time allows me to use Outlook as normal but how can get rid of this dialog? Usually you get this error when you are using a shared hosting account with your own domain and connect via SSL. Another common cause is that your ISP has changed the name of their mail server and is redirecting you from the old server name to the new one and the name of the old server isn’t on their new SSL certificate. Looking at the certificate usually provides the answer. Name on the certificate should match the name of the mail server The solution is quite simple; click on the “View Certificate…” button and look at the “Issued to” name. This is usually the name that you’ll need to specify for your incoming and/or outgoing server in your account configuration. In some cases, this still won’t work when the certificate holds multiple names. You can then select the “Details” tab and see if the certificate holds a field called “Subject Alternative Name”. If so, then you’ll find other names that you could try behind the “DNS Name=” value. If none of those names work either, contact your ISP and ask for the correct name of the mail server that you should use. Another (less secure) alternative would be to disable the use of SSL for your mail account. No need to install the certificate As long as the name on the certificate doesn’t match the name specified in your account settings, you’ll get this warning message. Installing the certificate will not help in any way and isn’t needed either. The only case in which installing the certificate is needed, is when the names do match and the certificate isn’t issued (trusted) by a Certificate Authority. These are so called “Self-Signed Certificates”. In that case, only install the certificate if you trust the domain that is specified on the certificate and if the administrator responsible for that domain has instructed you to do so.
