I'm trying to bring up courier-imap, which requires courier-authlib,
however i am unable to compile courier-authlib. it complains about
vpopmail. says i should recompile it with -fPIC.
my configure flags are as followed:
for vpopmail:
./configure CFLAGS=-fPIC --enable-roaming-users=y
any idea how to use it then?

so would you not use it within the ./configure flags ? thats what

This makes it an environment
The other odd thing is that vqadmin and qmailadmin still seem to be

You need to recompile them both, as they are statically linked to the

Now I just have to figure out why vpopmail is not working with postgres like
it should. I found the install guild at
http://www.pipeline.com.au/staff/mbowe/isp/vpopmail-postgresql.htm. However,
this did not seem to help. Am I correct in assuming that the connection info
for postgres is
RHEL4 AS on Intel Xeons, following configure statement and compile error:
./configure --prefix=/var/vpopmail --enable-auth-module=mysql
--enable-qmail-ext=y --enable-sql-logging=n --enable-incdir=/usr/include

How about making it an environment variable that could be set via

I don't think that would work, since the environment variables only
flow through to qmail-smtpd. I don't think there's a way for the
variables to flow through to qmail-local.
Correct, they cannot propagate
