To install a certificate you should just need to "launch" (douple tap) it from File Manager. The only certificates with can be imported are CA certificates though, which self-signed ones aren't usually - you'll need to create one specially with the CA flag set.

i've read this already somewhere and i tried it.
i exportet the certificate though firefox as a .pem file (i dont know what its called in english, my admin said its the 2nd available file format in the exporting dialog that should have that CA flag).. but the .pem file is still marked on the device with a questionmark and when i double click it i only get the details from it and its not listed in cert-manager.. is there anything i could have done wrong while exporting or something ?

To check whether it's a CA certificate, look at the certificate in Firefox. In the Certificate Fields, look for the Extensions section and the Certificate Basic Constraints field. If you select that, it should say "Is a Certificate Authority".
To Export from Firefox I think you just want the single certificate (not the chain). It should work by just exporting the very top certificate in the hierarchy, but may require each of the CAs in the hierarchy exporting separately.

From what has been said here, a certificate requires the CA flag in order to import into the Certificate Manager, and without a valid loaded CA certificate for a secure site, MfE won't work.

As a side note:
Could somebody who feels confident enough please check
http://wiki.maemo.org/Mail_for_Exchange
and make required changes to reflect the status of PR 1.1?
I wanted to edit the compatibility section today, which still lists is not compatible: "Microsoft Exchange 2003 (is supported in the first MfE update which is not available for public yet)"
After reading this thread I decided not to touch the page, though, as some users still report problems, I don't have access to any Exchange server myself and maybe it's better overall if somebody does it who know what he/she writes about.

I just hope we get a workaround to install non CA certificates.

Is the 2009.51.1 compatible with MfE server 2003?
It can be downloaded now. Atleast for me, it solved my communication problems.
Next problem is that the actual MfE is a bit crappy. Somekind of a Mfe type Widget is needed to allow quick looking of the mails. I'm a bit surprised since I didn't find any widget for this.
I mean come on, even crappiest cell phones which are capable of showing email have this ability. You know, phone is always showing the few recent mails. In this way you can instantly see if there's any mail for you.
With the n900 MfE you'll have to A) keep the email SW running ALL the time (at least I didn't find alternative solution)
B) open software EVERY time when you want to see if you have mail.

A email widget would also be nice, like this one for IMs
