You shouldn't need a root in the full chain, because the client already has
to have the root cert, but you do need all the links in the chain up to the
root.

Justina,
The vendor I have, which is having the difficulty is still saying he gets a
self-signed cert? but as I showed in my last email after I added Intermediate to
the certificate, everything was ok.
So ServerCert, Intermediate, Root in same file should solve this?

Subject: Re: Certificate and showing a sign-cert not there
In general:
Lots of mail servers out in the wild do not require TLS or even bother to
verifying TLS certificates when connecting to a remote server on port 25.
However, desktop and mobile email *clients* tend to be much stricter about
verifying server certificates when connecting via SSL or TLS, mainly to protect
user passwords.
Sometimes the server certificate needs to be presented with a "full
chain" appended to it for verification. That has been an issue before when
I've used some certs, particularly StartSSL before Letsencrypt started
offering free certs.

Hi ?
I am running Postfix 3.6.4 with Dovecot 2.3.17.1 (476cd46418).
I have a multi-signed cert from Entrust.
The cert works fine on port 25.
However, on Port 587 I get an error: c
