As such, you must have +openssl installed. openssl-solibs is not enough in itself to meet this +requirement. Additionally, dovecot will be compiled with POP3 support. +Unfortunately, dovecot does not have a man page at this time, so you'll +have to find your documentation elsewhere. A few examples are included +in /usr/doc/dovecot-$VERSION and the dovecot team maintains a wiki that +may prove useful: http://wiki.dovecot.org. + +You should probably create a dovecot user to run the login processes on +your server. The build script will exit with an error if you don't have +this user on your system. You should ensure dovecot has a low UID, such +as 91 (this is a low, unused UID on a stock Slackware-11.0 box). + +If you have any questions or comments about this script you are free to +contact me via e-mail at <alan@lizella.net>. Thanks! + |
