However, next time I would not use the ports to install it but do it all myself. Using the ports you kinda lose control what's installed where and that is important when installing cyrus-imapd as you need to customize quite a few things afterwards. Naturally, just my .2 cents worth.... ---Marius > -----Original Message----- > From: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG > [mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG]On Behalf Of BSD Admin > Sent: Wednesday, April 11, 2001 1:33 PM > To: Jan Grant > Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG > Subject: Re: IMAP (part two) > > > I'm using the imapd that came in the ports collection (I don't know which > one this is). > > I actually just found out that my manager wants to use Cyrus IMAP on this > server, so whatever IMAP I was using from the ports collection is going > to be scrapped. > > Maybe what I need to do now is find some documentation on installing Cyrus > IMAP... > > (any pointers much appriciated :) > > Thanks for the reply Jan, > > Ashby > > > > > > Which IMAP server are you using?
