Thank you Aidas. I have progressed using your suggestion... apt-get install --no-install-recommends courier-authdaemon \ courier-authlib courier-authlib-mysql courier-authlib-sqlite \ courier-base courier-imap courier-imap-ssl courier-maildrop \ courier-mta courier-mta-ssl courier-ssl However the above courier-authlib still depends on "expect" which brings in libtcl8.6 and tcl-expect, which I have no intention of using. From... http://www.courier-mta.org/authlib/README_authlib.html "SqWebMail uses an expect script - as mentioned in the introduction - to answer interactive prompts from passwd. The expect script expects to get a plain, garden-variety, passwd command, which acts something like this: [... example removed ...] Systems that use a passwd command with very different prompts may find that the default expect script will fail. In which case it will be necessary to tweak the expect script to match the prompts from the system's passwd command." I would have thought a) "expect" would be a depends of SqWebMail and not courier-authlib and b) I would also have used "chpasswd" from a script as it's been available in the standard linux passwd package for as long as I can remember. I have never used expect so maybe there are cases where it is necessary. Sam, is there any way that chpasswd could substitute for expect+tcl? And if not, is it safe to assume that expect should only be a depends for SqWebMail and not authlib (ie; when sqwebmail is not installed)? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Want excitement?
