You're using the standard self-signed certificate. If you want a certificate validated by someone else, you have to pay for it.

Your certs (on Debian) are in /etc/ssl. That's where you'd install one that was signed by an authority that Outlook trusts.

The other thing that you can do is install the self-signed certificate into outlook as "trusted". Works only for the particular installation of outlook that you do it on; each attaching client has to do it.
