We're seeing this problem too. Have never setup a certificate, using
Intermedia.net as an Exchange 2007 provider, no problem with Entourage
2004, or 2008. Only started after updating to SP1.
Setup new OS X user, created new account in Entourage 2008 SP1, and
it's showing the error once per Entourage-launch:
"Unable to establish a secure connection to (my domain) because the
correct root certificate is not installed."
Verbal awards for anyone who can figure this out :-)
