Actualy, it seems courier-imap and courier-pop pull in a few extra support packages including some sort of authentication daemon and it's own inet daemon. I haven't set it all up yet, but I feel a bit nervous about installing fragments of a larger application that replicate functionality of packages I already have installed. I'm particularly disturbed by extra daemons. I would have abandoned courier when I discovered this, except that courier+support packages still works out smaller than (uw-imapd|ipopd)-ssl+support packages. I might still abandon it though if the setup looks too complex/overkill for my application. -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ABO: finger [EMAIL PROTECTED] for more info, including pgp key ---------------------------------------------------------------------- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
