Hello all.
 
I'm taking a stab at making some updates to the tmda.spec file to make installation on a redhat system more brainless.  I intend to:
 
1) break the packages into subpackages:
    tmda-0.xx-y.src.rpm creates:
      tmda-0.xx-y.noarch.rpm
      tmda-ofmipd-0.xx-y.noarch.rpm
      tmda-emacs-0.xx-y.noarch.rpm
      tmda-cgi-0.xx-y.noarch.rpm
 
2)  tmda-ofmipd-0.xx-y.noarch.rpm performs a system wide installation, creates the ofmipd user/group, installs an init file and sysconfig file (maybe have the sysconfig installation search for authentication sources, ie. pop3, imap, etc), automatically starts daemon on installation
 
3)  tmda-emacs-0.xx-y.noarch.rpm installs tmda.el file
 
4)  tmda-cgi-0.xx-y.noarch.rpm installs cgi portions, installs include file configuration of web directory (currently only for apache 2.0), and restarts httpd daemon to activate changes
 
5) for tmda-0.xx-y.noarch.rpm, add some contrib files to the installation (ie. printcdb, printdbm).
 
 
I *do* have some questions...
1)  For the installation of tmda.el, how is this normally installed?  My inclination is to copy it into the /usr/lib/emacs/site-lisp directory.  I don't use emacs so I don't know if this would work or not.  Can someone who uses this extensively on redhat give me a ring and let me know how it should get installed?
