I am going to purchase an SSL certificate for a new Exchange 2010 server that I'm setting up, but it's been a while since I did this last. &nbsp;I would like to use OWA and Outlook anywhere, so I need some advice as to what domain names and SAN's to put in the certificate.<br />
<br />
Let's say that my mailserver is called: mail-pc <br />
<br />
The FQDN is mail-pc.mydomain.internal<br />
<br />
Our MX record resolves to mail.anotherdomain.co.uk<br />
<br />
What names do I include (such as autodiscover) to ensure I get the cert right first time?

HTTPS is a protocol for secure communication over a computer network which is widely used on the Internet. HTTPS consists of communication over Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) within a connection encrypted by Transport Layer Security (TLS) or its predecessor, Secure Sockets Layer (SSL). The main motivation for HTTPS is authentication of the visited website and to protect the privacy and integrity of the exchanged data. HTTPS is widely used for protecting page authenticity on all types of websites, securing accounts and keeping user communications, identity and web browsing private.
