18 | <para><parameter>--localstatedir=/var/lib/courier</parameter>: specifies the directory that will hold the mail

|
---|
27 | <application><acronym>GDBM</acronym></application> or the
|
---|
28 | <application>DB</application> database library.
|
---|
29 | <application><acronym>GDBM</acronym></application> is used if both are present. This option forces the selection of the database library.
|
---|
30 | </para>
|
---|
31 |
|
---|
32 | <!-- # Note - Courier will build fine with <xref linkend="db"/>, but all the database files
|
---|
33 | will not be created correctly -->
|
---|
34 |
|
---|
35 | <para><parameter>--with-mailuser=courier</parameter>: All except two
|
---|

|
---|
43 | <acronym>IMAP</acronym> clients that do not properly implement the

---|
44 | <acronym>IMAP</acronym>4rev1 protocol. This option enables some workarounds for
|
---|
45 | those buggy <acronym>IMAP</acronym> clients. NOTE: make check will fail if this option is used. You should first configure
|
---|
46 | without this option, and if all post-configuration tests succeed, rerun configure with this option and recompile.</para>
|
---|
47 |
|
---|
48 | <para><parameter>--with-ispell=/usr/bin/aspell</parameter>:
|
---|
49 | <application>Courier</application>'s webmail server can use spell checking, if
|
---|
50 | the aspell program is available. If configure finds ispell, spell checking is enabled. If aspell is not in the
|
---|
51 | current search path, use --with-ispell=program to explicitly set the
|
---|
52 | location of <application>aspell</application>.</para>
