Hello,

Have a question pertaining to using mod_ssl on one of my virtual sites.  I am 
running a web mail application in a directory on one of my sites and I was 
wondering if it would be possible to secure just a particular directory and 
everything under it.  For example, my site is www.example.com but I am wanting 
to secure www.example.com\mail.  Can it be possible to just use SSL on that 
particular directory rather than securing an entire site.  The reason I am 
asking is that I am going to use a self signed certificate (not going to pay an 
outrageous price of $800+) and I.E. complains about a certificate not being 
signed by a root authority.  I only need a handful of users going to the 
"\mail" directory and I can have them import the certificate so that I.E. 
doesn't complain each time one of them tries to access that directory.  The 
public accessing www.example.com doesn't need SSL and if I had to turn it on 
for the whole site, I.E. might scare them away when it says the certificate 
can't be verified...

Thanks guys!

Rodman
