I've got it fired up, albeit with executables twice the size you mention
above. I generally don't use ports ar they're often one or two versions
behind the current, and often intall things where I don't expect them
to.

I did a reconfigure and set CXXGLAGS="-O2" but are there any other knobs
I can turn?

When using Pine as the client, I can only see the INBOX, and not any of
the existing folders created by Courier (the same is true in KMail). How
can I "upgrade" the folders to allow Binc to see them - is it Ok to just
add them to the bincimap-subscribed file? Can I leave -uidvalidity and
-cache missing? I need to do this programmatically, not helped by the
system being 500 miles away...
