138032SpeterThis directory contains the source files for mail.local. 238032Speter 338032SpeterThis is not intended to be used on *stock* System V derived systems such as 438032SpeterSolaris or HP-UX, since they use a totally different approach to mailboxes 590792Sgshapiro(essentially, they have a set-group-ID program rather than set-user-ID, and 690792Sgshapirothey rely on the ability to "give away" files to do their work). 738032Speter 838032SpeterIf you choose to run *this* mail.local on these systems then you may also 938032Speterneed to replace the existing MUAs, as well as IMAP and POP servers, with 1038032Speterones that are compatible with the BSD interface. You have been warned! 1164562Sgshapiro 1264562SgshapiroFor systems with maillock() support, compile with -DMAILLOCK and link with 1364562Sgshapiro-lmail to use the maillock() routines. This can be accomplished in your 1464562Sgshapirosite.config.m4 file with: 1564562Sgshapiro 1664562Sgshapiro APPENDDEF(`conf_mail_local_ENVDEF', `-DMAILLOCK') 1764562Sgshapiro APPENDDEF(`conf_mail_local_LIBS', `-lmail') 1864562Sgshapiro 1964562SgshapiroDefining CONTENTLENGTH (-DCONTENTLENGTH) will build a mail.local which 2064562Sgshapirooutputs a Content-Length: header. Solaris 2.3 and later will automatically 2164562Sgshapiroinclude Content-Length: support. This can be accomplished in your 2264562Sgshapirosite.config.m4 file with: 2364562Sgshapiro 2464562Sgshapiro APPENDDEF(`conf_mail_local_ENVDEF', `-DCONTENTLENGTH') 2564562Sgshapiro 2664562SgshapiroDefining MAILGID to a 'gid' (-DMAILGID=6) will cause mailboxes to be 2764562Sgshapirowritten group writable and with group 'gid'. This can be accomplished in 2864562Sgshapiroyour site.config.m4 file with: 2964562Sgshapiro 3064562Sgshapiro APPENDDEF(`conf_mail_local_ENVDEF', `-DMAILGID=6') 3164562Sgshapiro 3290792Sgshapiromail.local will not be installed set-user-ID root.
