Dovecot IMAPs SSL certificate

I run sendmail and dovecot as IMAP server on FC4. I use SSL encrypted connection, but the certificate is for imap.example.com, which always generates an error. I tried to run mkcert.sh, but it still not for my server. How can I change this?

Had to change values in /etc/pki/dovecot/dovecot-openssl.cnf, then run /usr/share/doc/dovecot-0.99.14/examples/mkcert.sh and restart dovecot. Some fields in the certificate are still empty tough...

Is it working now ? That is the correct way. Edit the .cnf with all your pertinent info and run the mkcert.sh. And it should be working. Also rename the sample certificates with .old or something before making the new one.
