Here's the story... I'm trying to compile qmail-mysql with a new patch that I have found. We've got a test mail server set up explicitly for trying this. Did some googling and asked a question on here earlier about how exactly you get a patch to compile with the ports collection. The answer was to put into the files folder of the port you are trying to install. Well qmail-mysql did not have the particular directory but after looking into the qmail directory I found such a folder. (This is after doing a make fetch WITH_BIG_CONCURRENCY=yes and make extract in the qmail-mysql port). We put our patch into the /usr/ports/mail/qmail/files directory and then did a make install. Once that was finished and finishing the other tasks of getting qmail to work we find that the patch didn't compile. It didn't do what we thought it would do. So my question is this...what did we do wrong? Should the patch have been somewhere else? This is the patch we were trying to use: http://www3.sympatico.ca/humungusfungus/code/validrcptto.html Version of FreeBSD is 5.2.1. Thanks in advance
