 Problems finding free certs for a wildca 
 19 Feb 16 15:14:14 
 
  I'm working on setting up a diaspora pod here, but unfortunately I've hit a
little bit of a snag.  It appears that I need some wildcard certs, and
self-signed ones will not do the trick for this project.  I'm not able to use
my synchro.net domain, obviously, as it would be registering the entire
synchro.net domain and not just tinfoil.synchro.net.  We do have another few
domains that we can probably utilize, but none of them allow receiving email at
whatever@domain.name.  The only place that I've found that will do free SSL/TLS
certs requires the ability to receive email at whatever@domain.name, so that
seems to be the hangup at this point.  Does anybody know of a place that'll do
free certs that doesn't require email at this top level?  I'd really like to
get this project going, as I've got some other opportunities that kind of hinge
on it.
  Thanks for any pointers y'all might be able to offer.
