SSL for server2.dgb-gaming.com

We recently moved from NGZ to Hetzner. NGZ was a nice host, but they recently changed their price model, resulting in higher prices for our server.
The move gave me the opportunity to change a few things in the servers configuration, on of this is things is SSL for the web interface. SSL certificates are normally very expensive, but there are a few organisations that grant free class 1 certificates. One of them is startcom, a certification authority and linux vendor form Israel. You can even get a class 2 certificate (verification of your identity) for 20$. The startcom root cert is already recognized by a large number of browser and if your browser doesn't include it, you can install it.
Anyway, server2.dgb-gaming.com is now using SSL for http (including web interface, webmail, etc), FTP over SSL, imap/pop3-ssl and smtp-tls.
