This generally indicates that you have a syntax error in the Makefile. Spaces not tabs would be an obvious error, particularly if you have just done a cut and paste job. Try replacing indent spaces with tabs. I don't know what the Fedora package is like, but installing postfix using a Debian package is absolutely straightforward to get up and running. Incidentally, mutt itself does have support for pop and imap, and so your use case may enable you to use a much more straightforward set up than that described in the docs. You say you'll be trying it with a googlemail account, and you should be able to find MANY guides online to configuring mutt to work with gmail, without struggling with postfix and fetchmail. There is a clear one on the mutt wiki.) unman -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
