I've run into a curious problem installing the Courier-IMAP (from the standalone IMAP server package).
1. Starting point: A properly working Qmail + vpopmail-5.2.1 (using MySQL) installation on RedHat 7.3, no problems that I'm aware of. 2. Initial problems with compiling: - couldn't read libvpopmail.a --> fixed file permissions and tried again - linker complained about missing mysql libraries --> fixed by setting LDFLAGS The whole configure string I used was: LDFLAGS="-L/usr/lib/mysql -lmysqlclient -lz"; export LDFLAGS; ./configure --silent --with-autvchkpw; "make", "make check", "make install-strip" and "make install-configure" run without problems and Courier starts. 3. Initial connection to Courier-IMAP works as expected: >>>> [me@mail me]# telnet 0 143 Trying 0.0.0.0... Connected to 0. Escape character is '^]'. * OK Courier-IMAP ready.

I try IMMEDIATELY again: >>>> [me@mail me]# telnet 0 143 Trying 0.0.0.0... Connected to 0. Escape character is '^]'. * OK Courier-IMAP ready. Copyright 1998-2002 Double Precision, Inc.

Anybody got ideas what I should do next? I allready tried without success versions "1.5.3", "1.5.3.20021014.RC2" and even "1.4.3" (which I've had running on another server for quite some time). ---- Ystävällisin terveisin / Best regards Jussi Siponen ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ courier-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/courier-users
