1. Install prepackaged php version and check phpinfo() Tell people what they are missing if they use it. 2. --with-ssl --with-gd --with-mysql --with-dba (and relatives) --with-ldap --with-mcrypt --with-ssl - You need it, if you meet uw imapd with standard configuration and plain text auth is disabled by default. --with-gd, --with-dba (and relatives), --with-mcrypt - Some extra plugins use gd or dba or mcrypt functions. --with-mysql - SquirrelMail works without it, but I don't understand why you need php if you can't implement LAMP (or BAMP) projects. --with-ldap - there is ldap based address book in SquirrelMail You should enable as much extensions as you can. Or you will have to recompile your php packages every time you need some extra function. 3. After you install php, check if other translations work correctly. FreeBSD has some issues with German, French, Turkish and bunch of other translations. 4. There is no need to modify core/Makefile. You can build them as extensions. http://nomoa.com/bsd/php4.htm 5. You need ispell too. It is possible that with some languages aspell works better, but in some cases aspell word ending recognition support is abysmal. Newer squirrelspell versions might use php pspell support (--with-pspell). 6. As other people said, if you install bigger webmail system, you don't use UW imapd. It has only 30 years of compatibility, mailbox locking problems and lower performance than Maildir based systems. -- Tomas ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SF.net Giveback Program.
