Every time i try to check my university's email via outlook it gives
me a "Internet Security Warning" dialog box saying that the security
certificate cannot be verified and asks me if i want to continue using
the server (Yes or No). How do i tell it to always accept for this
particular server/certificate instead of asking me everytime?
Any help or pointer to the right direction would be much appreciated!

P.S. I am using outlook 2007 on windows xp with all the latest updates.

This means youruniversity has setup the autodiscovery feature for
Exchange but has not deployed the certificate correctly (either it is
issued by an Internal CA, expired date or wrong host name on the
cert). If you look at the cert and you see that it says the cert is
not from a trusted authority than you can force the trusting of this
cert to stop this message. If it is to do with the date or host name,
than there is nothing you can do as such.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the info. It says The target principal name is incorrect.
So i guess nothing can be done about it?

thanks once again.
