Adding new CAs is actually pretty easy in Windows. You right click it, 
"install certificate", place it into "Trusted root certificates" and 
click ok/next a few times.

I have no idea how to do it in Linux though. Does OpenSSL have some 
hardcoded root certificates directory, or does each program handle it 
in it's own way? Before Evolution used to ask me constantly about my 
certificate, and lazy as I were I just clicked "ok". Nowadays it seems 
to be silent, maybe one day it started remembering it.
