Trusting Your Start9 CA On Windows
==================================
Complete this guide to download your Start9 server's Root Certificate Authority (CA), and trust it on your client device (Windows). This allows you to use encrypted ``https`` connections to your ``.local`` (LAN) and ``.onion`` (tor) server addresses, access services on LAN, and enhances performance on tor. The Root CA was created by your server when you perfomed the initial setup, and signs the certificate of your server's main UI, as well as that of all services.

Unfortunately, Windows does not have mDNS alias support built-in, which is necessary in order to visit .local addresses for any service you install on your Start9 server, so we recommend using the Bonjour service. Check out this :ref:`FAQ answer<why-bonjour>` for details.

SMTP (E-Mail) Setup
===================
There are several services that are able to take advantage of a Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) server in order to send emails. The most common third party SMTP services are GMail and Amazon SES. Some example services that you may wish to use this functionality with are BTCPay Server, Ghost, Gitea, Nextcloud, Synapse, and Vaultwarden.
In order to get SMTP credentials for use in a StartOS service, you can follow one of these third party guides:
