I recently read an article in the Fedora Magazine about LetsEncrypt entering Beta Testing. It seems awesome.

I'm going to try it soon.

I already use it for one of my servers. It's extremely easy, if you have Debian based OS and apache2, you only must run the installation once and It's done.

Earlier SSL has been just an option and one of the thing people order only if they really need it. However, since the announcement from both Google and Bing in regards to first preference to HTTPS sites many people being more cautious and considering security and privacy solutions. I think this will soon become the new standard for industry in time.

From reading the article, it sounds like it's just domain and web servers. Now if it's decided to include mail servers, this could be a big hit if the cards are played right and the EFF is reputable and ruthless when it comes to privacy protection.

I think it should work with mail servers too.
