| 32 | <!-- # Note - Courier will build fine with <xref linkend="db"/>, but all the database files

|
|---|
| 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>

| 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>
