This usually means that the certificate is not in pcks12 format, but,
likely, in *.der or *.pem format (as used by ssl). AFAIK there is only
one way to convert these, and that is using mozilla or firefox. These
can export certificates to pkcs12 usable by evolution.

If someone knows a shorter route, I'd really like to know :-)
