DNSimple SSL for Ruby on Rails Heroku App - Which Email to Use?


I've got a Ruby on Rails app setup with Heroku and DNSimple, however when I went to purchase an SSL certificate for the site it shows the following:

Send Email to Approve SSL Certificate

Select an active email address from the list below. You will receive an email to approve the SSL    certificate.


Approver *
yvyvdhnrrl@whoisprivacyprotect.com
admin@______.org
administrator@_______.org
hostmaster@______.org
postmaster@_______.org
webmaster@______.org
admin@www.______.org
administrator@www.______.org
hostmaster@www.______.org
postmaster@www.______.org
webmaster@www.______.org

(I removed the actual site's name for privacy reasons)

How am I supposed to claim one of these email addresses and use it to finish the approval process of my domain's certificate?


Solution

  • From http://support.dnsimple.com/articles/ssl-certificates-email-approval/

    The email approval is required for domain-validated certificates.

    You need to use an email you have access to. It is required to approve the certificate, you will receive an email from the CA.
