Command explanations--sysconfdir=/etc/courier: Specifies the
directory where Courier's configuration
files are installed.--with-piddir=/var/run: Specifies the
directory where Courier's
PID files are stored
when Courier is active.--libexecdir=/usr/lib/courier: 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/spool/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 option.:be paranoid when negotiating Courier-specific
ESMTP extensions with remote servers. The Courier mail server
defines and implements certain experimental ESMTP extensions: XVERP and XEXDATA. Problems may
result in the event that someone else uses the same name to implement some other extension.
If this option is specified, Courier's ESMTP server will also
advertise a dummy ESMTP capability called XCOURIEREXTENSIONS, and will not recognize any
Courier-specific extensions unless the remote mail server also advertises this dummy ESMTP
capability.: do not rename the Sent folder every month.
This option can also be controlled by the SQWEBMAIL_AUTORENAMESENT environment variable.: 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.--with-mailgroup=courier: like
, but specifies the group
ID.: 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.
