I got qmailadmin 0.42 working finally from /usr/ports (FreeBSD 4.2 with
cvsup'ed ports)
Attached is the Makefile that I used (my prefix is /usr/local, edit if
yours
is different)
My setup is vpopmail-4.9.8-1 + OpenLDAP 1.1.2.11_1 + Courier IMAP 1.3.7 on
FreeBSD 4.2
Now my qmailadmin problems are solved.
However, I am still going to do the project I described below, something
like vqadmin, but in perl, and much easier to install/configure.
Hope this might be useful to anyone..
However, the hardquota code part is still broken and coredumps! :(
