Command explanations
--sysconfdir=/etc/courier : Specifies the directory where Courier's configuration
files are installed.
--with-piddir=/var/run : Specfies the directory where Courier's pid files are stored
when Courier is active.
--libexecdir=/usr/libexec : libexecdir contains programs and libraries that cannot
be directly executed from the command line.
--datadir=/usr/share/courier : Specifies the directory where miscellaneous shell
scripts, Perl scripts, and data files will be installed.
--localstatedir=/var/lib/courier : specifies the directory that will hold the mail
queue, and other temporary data. This option defaults to the subdirectory "var" in the directory specified
by the --prefix option.
--disable-root-check : Allows Courier to be built as the root user.
--with-db=gbbm : Courier requires either the GDBM or the DB database library.
GDBM is used if both are present. This option forces the selection of the database library.
--with-mailuser=courier : All except two Courier daemons run as a non-privileged
user. This option specifies the userid that Courier will install and run as.
--withmailgroup=courier : like --with-mailuser, but specifies the group ID.
--enable-workarounds-for-imap-client-bugs : there are several confirmed bugs in some
IMAP clients that do not properly implement the IMAP4rev1 protocol. This option enables some workarounds for
those buggy IMAP clients. NOTE: make check will fail if this option is used. You should first configure
without this option, and if all post-configuration tests succeed, rerun configure with this option and recompile.
--with-ispell=/usr/bin/aspell : Courier's webmail server can use spell checking, if
the aspell program is available. If configure finds ispell, spell checking is enabled. If aspell is not in the
current search path, use --with-ispell=program to explicitly set the location of aspell.
