Email certificate error

When I try to send an email through my Outlook client using my Homestead email, I keep getting this message: "The server you are connected to is using a security certificate that cannot be verified. The target principal name is incorrect. Do you want to continue using this server?" When I press yes it seems like sometimes the email sends and sometimes it does not. 

When I click View Certificate I see the below data. I notice this problem started around March, when the new certificate was issued. How do I resolve this? Sometimes my emails are going through and sometimes they are not. The current smtp address I'm using is smtp.homestead.com, port 587, STARTTLS

Correction, the problem's been happening since at least January, so disregard the note about it coinciding with the new certificate issue date.
