Courier-IMAP

Download and untar package courier-imap in your favorite sandbox. Version used: 4.4.1.20080920

Courier-IMAP requires the installation of the Courier Authentication Library

Courier Authentication Library

Download and untar courier-authlib in your favorite sandbox. Version used: 0.61.0

The package compilation fails, due to:

  1. incorrect usage of EXEEXT in makedat/Makefile
  2. missing crypt library in main Makefile

The package installation fails, due to:

  1. incorrect version of shared library file (*.la)

To correct the first compilation issue and the installation error, apply the following [{{#file:courrier-authlib-0.61.0-cygwin.patch}} patch] before configuration.

Configure the package without most authentication modules keeping only userdb. Replace mailuser by an existing user name (in your /etc/passwd file). Note: I used my own username.

$ ./configure --disable-root-check --with-waitfunc=wait --without-authpam --without-authldap --without-authpwd \
--without-authshadow --without-custom --without-authpipe --without-authmysql --without-authpgsql --with-mailuser=mailuser \
--with-mailgroup=mkgroup-l-d --enable-shared=no

Take a long pause... and when ready execute the following command. The LDFLAGS and LIBS variables are used to correct the second issue.

$ make LDFLAGS=-lcrypt LIBS=-lcrypt

Maildir

maildirmake is part of the courier-imap package
