Hi guys! I got through fetchmail, postfix, procmail, cone, sylpheed (going to look at bioth). Sorry to dissappoint afficianados of mutt, pine, elm, Ecvolution, kmail, etc. I fell on the last hurdle - SpamAssassin.
Under CPAN Warning: prerequisite Digest::SHA1 0 not found. Warning: prerequisite HTML::Parser 3.24 not found. Writing Makefile for Mail::SpamAssassin Makefile written by ExtUtils::MakeMaker 6.17 [EMAIL PROTECTED] /usr/src/Mail-SpamAssassin-3.0.3]# It downloads them and throws up a lot of writing very fast. I finally get The error was: version.h.pl: version.h.pl: version.h.pl: version.h.pl: version.h.pl: version.h.pl: version.h.pl: Can't locate Digest/SHA1.pm in @INC (@INC contains: ../lib /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.5/i686-linux /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.5 /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.5/i686-linux /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.5 /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl .) at ../lib/Mail/SpamAssassin/EvalTests.pm line 33.

Trying 'perl Makefile.PL' I get Warning: prerequisite Digest::SHA1 0 not found. Warning: prerequisite HTML::Parser 3.24 not found. Writing Makefile for Mail::SpamAssassin Makefile written by ExtUtils::MakeMaker 6.17 [EMAIL PROTECTED] /usr/src/Mail-SpamAssassin-3.0.3]# These are the two modules I have installed already under the CPAN setup. Is it them or is it me? All was done as root, not user.
