Thank you. I am quite aware of Lets Encrypt. It doesn't quite fit my
usecase, specifically:

a) it a pain if you're running several servers, some of which don't
have webservers, thus callbacks become annoying. (e.g. mailservers/vpn-
servers/voip servers etc)

There is the DNS-01 option which I've use for servers that have LAN only connectivity at work, there is lots of examples available on this page:

Personally I have used this one with Gandi with good results:

b) it is only trusted somewhat widely for web, but mail clients (apple-
mail & iPhone) seem to not accept it for email just as readily. Nor
does it work for gRPC or OpenVPN very well.

I have used their certificates successfully for mail server, IRC bouncer and OpenVPN and both Android and iPhone clients.
 
Just a thought, until Bitfolk offer a CA
