Hi Sam,

The default configuration directory of the courier-imap RPM build is
/usr/lib/courier-imap/etc. However, I always extract the spec file,
and change that to /etc/courier-imap, because I believe that all
config files should live in /etc, where they belong. And also, when
backing up the configuration of a server, I can just backup /etc, and
not lose any settings.

Why don't you change the default sysconfdir macro to point to
/etc/courier-imap ?

I'm also trying to get all of sqwebmail's config files to go into
/etc/sqwebmail, but it's a little tricker, since there's no actual
config directory for sqwebmail. Rather, the config files are all laid
out under the htmllibdir directory. Would it not be better if the
following files all went into /etc/sqwebmail ?

authdaemonrc.dist
authmysqlrc.dist
authpgsqlrc.dist
authldaprc.dist
configlist
ldapaddressbook.dist
ldapsearch
nodsn
sendit.sh
sqwebmaild.dist
sysconftool
sysconftool-rpmupgrade
webgpg

And perhaps the HTML templates could also all go into
/etc/sqwebmail/html, since they are, in a way, configuration files (a
site could edit the template files to apply their own colours, styles,
etc).

Will you accept patches for the spec files if I change them to put the
configuration into /etc ?
