I rebuilt using RPM's and what-do-you-know... it works. Thank you! Thank you!
I am wondering why a source "make" didn't work though. Even more worrisome
was the lack of any kind of logged error. From what I've seen searching this
list it doesn't appear there's any "debug logging" for esmtp or delivery which
can be enabled. That sure would help!
Thanks again for the help!

Hi Sam,

It's very rude.
I'm not sure I understand your suggestion on building/install RPMs.
What does that process do that "make install/install-configure" doesn't?
Quite a bit.
It makes sure that all necessary libraries are present.
It prevents you from accidentally overwriting files installed by some
other package on your system. And it will also prevent some other
package, that's installed later, from overwriting and blowing away any
file installed by this package.
It automatically records all dependencies needed by the package, thus
preventing you from accidentally removing a required library or a
module, and breaking everything. A subsequent upgrade to a new release
of WS will automatically install any legacy compatibility packages that
may be required, and are avialble.
It automatically installs all necessary startup and shutdown scripts.
I would have loved to use "off the shelf" RPMs, but I couldn't locate
any for RHEL4 x86_64.
Is it really that difficult to execute:
rpmbuild -ta courier-authlib-<version>.tar.bz2
rpm -i courier-authlib<version>.<arch>.rpm \
courier-authlib-devel-<version>.<arch>.rpm \
courier-authlib-<subpackage>…
rpmbuild -ta courier-<version>.tar.bz2
rpm -i courier-<version>.<arch>.rpm \
courier-<subpackage>…
?
