Default How do I get a digital cert for running outlook Windows xp

I have installed BT Broadband, now trying to get going with outlook. all
installed OK but when I try to send an email it says I haven't got a digital
certificate. I have run through the help details and installed SelfCerte.exe
but still no joy. do you know what else I need to make it work?
Thanks

For the vast majority of people, no digital certificate is required. Digital
certificates allow signing of messages so that you can prove the message is
from you and also allow the exchange of encrypted messages. BT/Yahoo mail
doesn't require digical certificate. Perhave you've inadvertently enabled the
option to sign outgoing messages, but we can't tell because you're not
preceise enough in your symptom description. You don't even state your
Outlook version or give the exact text of the error, so we can only guess what
you see.
