I am using an ISA server with a *.domain.com certificate on a single
IP address. This allows any thrdlvldomain.domain.com SSL to validate
to the ISA server when used with IE on a desktop or server system.

It appears that this feature (the * for match all) is missing from IE
on Windows Mobile 5 devices and from Exchange Active Sync.

Can anyone else confirm or repute that the mobile device can use or
not use the *.domain.com certificate? I have gotten so confused, that
I am doubting my results at this point.

Thanks

I can confirm that WM5 doesn't have wildcard cert support in the platform.
