Hello all

I have a question regarding all those 3 components.
On the company we are migrating from BB to Windows Phone 7. That means, a 
couple of applications that are running on the BBs needs to now run on WP7.

The application with issues is making a HTTPS call to a website (if you access 
the website from IE works fine). But the application basically is ending the 
connection because of an untrusted certificate (we use COMODO certificates for 
public sites).
I was told, the apps part of WP7 only check if the root certificate of the cert 
used on the site is on the trusted list. But if there is any intermediate 
certificate, then the ISA or whatever is publishing the site needs to be 
provided.

From my limited knowledge of the product, that is not doable and is also not 
secure. But I can be wrong of course.
Can anybody tell me if that is possible and if it is, how I can offer an 
intermediate certificate on a web site published with ISA 2006?

Thanks in advance

Regards
Diego R. Pietruszka
