I have obtained a free certificate for torres.zugschlus.de and have
installed it on torres' exim. It seems to work fine. Please check with
torres.zugschlus.de on TCP/25 with STARTTLS for the next few days.

Just for the record, the private key I created starts with "-----BEGIN
RSA PRIVATE KEY-----", and openssl rsa is the only thing that works,
openssl pkcs8 complains: "18344:error:0906D06C:PEM
routines:PEM_read_bio:no start line:pem_lib.c:644:Expecting: ENCRYPTED
PRIVATE KEY"

It looks like a more specific issue that does not apply to all
certificates.

The fact that they do not have an "OpenSSL" field in their software
selection and inist that it is apache's mod_ssl that issues the
certificate request does not show extraordinary high knowhow.

Greetings
Marc
