I guess you get this question every day and twice on sundays, although
not on this list since ive checked the archives.
Now, the thing is, i cannot get to compile courier-imap (0.42.2, source
package as distributed in debian sarge. Courier latest stable vanilla
also fails the exact same way) with vpopmail (latest stable vanilla) in
debian due to two things:
1.- Configure fails due to a missing /home/vpopmail/etc/lib_deps which
is just not there. I 'touch' it and configure continues
2.- After doing that, it fails when linking the vchkpwd auth stuff. This
happens even if i copy /home/vpopmail/lib/libvpopmail.a to /usr/lib.
Im compling all this from the /usr/local/src directory with all the
flags in the debian package.... let me show you:
COMMON_CONFOPTS=--prefix=/usr --mandir=\$${prefix}/share/man \
--with-piddir=/var/run/courier \

--with-webadmindir=/usr/share/courier/webadmin \
--enable-userdb \
--enable-syslog=1 \
--enable-unicode \
--disable-root-check
As you can see, i took away the without-vchkpw directive so that it
correctly attempts to configure for vpopmail.
The courier people (from their ml archives) claim it all the vpopmail's
people fault, i think they can be pretty snotty but hey, its their imap
server....
So, any help would be greatly appreciated....
