Should Binc IMAP in versions 1.2.7 and on, and in 1.3, assume that

suggestions to how the files should be placed by the default behavior of

./configure --prefix=/usr/local

it's easy to work with and very flexible.

If its time pratical this would be cool Andy. It'd help the lifewithqmail extension to easily position the logs in with qmail's logs.


By default though assuming --prefix is the root is more intuitive for me at least :) .. perhaps

$PREFIX/bin    - the 2 executables + misc scripts
$PREFIX/man    - the man pages
$PREFIX/logs   - the logs
$PREFIX/etc ?? - config file

Not sure at all where to put the docs and service stuff though, i don't know how $PREFIX/docs and $PREFIX/service would look under /usr/local ... if I wasn't following the lifewithqmail extension or using a distro package though I'd be inclined to set /usr/local/bincimap-x.xx as my prefix with /usr/local/bincimap sym linked to the current version.
