Yes, that's what you need to do, that will allow Jira to offer a certificate to the server asking for one.

Hello Nic,
We are using outlook.com SMTP for mail functioning.

SMTP Server : imap-mail.outlook.com

We need to import its certificate at Jira keystore.

This means your Jira has not got the certificates needed to connect to your mail server.

You'll need to talk to your mail server admins about getting a valid certificate to allow access.
