IIRC, the gentoo ebuild for courier includes its own init script, and people have complained about it repeatedly in the past. I don't know if it's possible to use Courier's own init script, or why the gentoo maintainer doesn't do so, but that would probably be the place to start. It might be worth tracking the maintainer down and getting his input. http://packages.gentoo.org/package/mail-mta/courier?arches=prefix ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download BIRT iHub F-Type - The Free Enterprise-Grade BIRT Server from Actuate!
