Dear Jeff, I've checked all wath you said, and I have no the courier-smtpauth neither /etc/courier....I suppose this instalation was done with the minimun options. The OS is Debian 3.0 , and the back-end is LOCAL USERS.
So I want to start from the begining, now I'll use Fedora because I have not Debian at this moment. I will create a new mail server and then migrate the actual accounts. I need SMTP, POP3 , IMAP, Authenticate SMTP, maildrop, Webmail and Webmin. So I ask you the following (I have read the docs at the courier site but it's not clear to my knowledge !!!): 1) Is Sendmail necessary in my OS for any other use ??? 2) Does Courier 0.48 (http://www.courier-mta.org/beta/courier/courier-0.48.tar.bz2) have all the components I need or do I have to download separated packages like courier authentication library ?? 3) Why is mandatory to build RPM packages as non-root ??
