Getting help
|
|
|
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You've installed an automated and customized qmail package. If
|
|
|
|
|
you're having trouble with it, ask the package's maintainer:

Many members of the qmail mailing list recommend following the
|
|
|
|
|
install instructions in Dave Sill's "Life with qmail" document:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A "Life with qmail" installation is done by hand, so any qmail
|
|
|
|
|
package necessarily deviates from LWQ in at least this respect.
|
|
|
|
|
Therefore, if you need to ask for help on the qmail list, please
|
|
|
|
|
mention:
|
|
|
|
|
|
Using bsd.options.mk, add several common build-time options. The
complete list:
badrcptto bigdns darwin netqmail nullenvsender
outgoingip qregex realrcptto smtpauth syncdir
tls
This obviates the need for a separate netqmail package. As a result,
reintegrate Makefile.common into Makefile, and simplify a handful
of definitions. If you used the netqmail package, set PKG_OPTIONS.qmail
to "netqmail bigdns" to build with the same patches as before.
Note that most of these options result in patches being applied,
and that any given combination of patches may not apply cleanly.
If there's a combination you need that doesn't work, or build
options you need that aren't available, let me know.
On Darwin, the "darwin" option is set by default, as it's needed
in order to build. The patch includes <nameser8_compat.h>, which
is present on Panther, but not on older systems. We provide a
buildlink stand-in where needed.
On Linux, the "netqmail" option is set by default, as with recent
glibc it's necessary to #include <errno.h> in order to build.
On other platforms, no options are set by default.
Bump PKGREVISION.

If you can first reproduce your problem on a manual LWQ-style
|
|
|
|
|
installation, your request for help is likely to be better received.

It is highly recommended that you read Charles Cazabon's "12 Steps
