Actually I think I found solution myself. When creating the certificate
I was prompted for "Common name (e.g. YOUR name)", so naturally I filled
in my own name. But it seems this is actually the site name that
Netscape is referring to, so if I set it to mail-nl.europe.rational.com
(the name of the web server) everything is fine.

Sorry for bothering you all with this.
