Installing cyrus-imapd-2.2.9 on MacOS X 10.3 (Panther)

[OpenMacNews]

hi chuck,

this _should_ do the trick ...

% cd /path_to_/cyrus-imapd-2.2.10
% cp /usr/share/libtool/config.* .

then, remove the line:

	     --->	#include <sys/msg.h>

from all code instances. for me, after patches, that's:

	imap/cvt_cyrusdb.c
	imap/mboxlist.c
	imap/mboxlist.c.orig
	imtest/imtest.c
	installsieve/installscript.c
	installsieve/request.c
	netnews/remotepurge.c
	perl/sieve/lib/request.c


then simply

    ./configure (...)
    make depend
    make all
    make install

afaik, should work for both 2.2.9 & 2.2.10.

the build should go relatively pain-free.

the 'tough part' (well, at least for me) is getting imap, sasl & your MTA to
play nice together.

oh, and fwiw, it's all running fine on OSX 10.3.7 =)

cheers,

richard
