you need to contact your admin to get email server address, just contact your email provider and ask for

It will help you to configure your mail on system

Open the Outlook Express and configure it as follows-
Select Tools-->Acccounts----->All---->

Display Name: "Your name"
Email Address: "Your complete email address"(e.g. id@nic.in)
Incoming Mail Server: POP3
Incoming mail server : mail.nic.in
Outgoing mail server : mail.nic.in

(b)Properties-

(i)General

Email address: "Your complete email address"
(ii)Server

My incoming mail server is : POP3
Incoming mail server : mail.nic.in
Outgoing mail server : mail.nic.in
Click the checkbox for : My server requires authentication
(iii)Advanced

Outgoing mail (SMTP) : 465
Click the checkbox for : This server require secure connection(SSL)
Incoming mail server : 995
Click the checkbox for : This server require secure connection(SSL)
Click the checkbox for : Leave a copy of message on server

Yes essbebe, when i was filling an application for UPSC it asked me save a piece of certificate(on hard drive) from nic.in because my computer wasnt allowing their certificates.. :O

Oh no.. I am not receiving old posts. When ever I have time, I try to help and answer as many questions as possible.

I did not get/or getting any certificate errors when accessing https://mail.nic.in/docs/faq.html from IE9. BUT getting "This Connection is Untrusted" if I try it using Firefox kind of weird. But as long as you trust the website just go ahead provided you have properly patched up your systems and upto date antivirus.

NIC uses Certificates issued by the Govt of India authority. Since firefox is designed to verify certificates with US recognised issuers, it gives an error. Same is applicable for all Govt of India secured websites.

have you seen a nic website asking you to save certicate somewhere on your comp.. ?

For my official work, I am required to use NIC only. And it is a standard instruction from NIC Admin to save the certificate.

I think it automatically selects default location.

I use mainly thunderbird. And only the first time for a given system it asks for saving certificate and adding exception. Thereafter it works normally.
