    I've looked at using Thawte - I don't know what your definition of "cheap"
    is, but they are cheaper than VeriSign.

    One think you'll want to check is if the client programs (web browser,
    mail client, etc) comes with the SSL cert provider's root certificates
    installed.

    If not, you'll have to manually install the root certificate to get it to
    work seamlessly, and in that case you might as well just use openssl and
    self-signed certificates.
