OpenSMTPD 7.3.0p0 rc1 builds okay on Slackware 15.0 (stable) but displays
this configure warning message:

  configure: WARNING: unrecognized options: --with-path-CAfile

Testing smtpd failed at first

The program started, but stopped immediately with an error message:

smtpd[10147]: info: OpenSMTPD 7.3.0-portable starting
smtpd[10152]: dispatcher: tls_config_set_ca_file: failed to open CA file 
'/etc/ssl/cert.pem': No such file or directory
smtpd[10148]: smtpd: process control socket closed

Slackware 15.0 does not have an /etc/ssl/cert.pem file, but does have a
ca-certificates.crt file...

So I created a symbolic link from /etc/ssl/cert.pem to the
ca-certificates.crt file and smtpd now starts up fine.

It works with simple local email.

I will modify the build to remove the --with-path-CAfile
configure option and add a symbolic link for /etc/ssl/cert.pem

I will keep testing and see if it breaks...
