Hi Vassilis,

If you have standalone setup of your CA you can manually import the CA
certificate.

Open Web Interface for your CA server and go to Download a CA certificate,
certificate chain or CRL. Here click on Download CA certificate. Save the
file and transfer it on the client (all your clients and servers that will
work with your Exchange server). Double click on it and follow the wizard.
Default values should be OK. Once you install it, all the certificates
issued on this CA will be trusted.

I hope this helps,

Mike
