:: I'm attempting to install courier-imap-1.3.5 on Redhat 7.0. When :: I run the ./configure command, it rips through a bunch of :: "checking" messages and ends with the following two lines: :: :: checking for openssl... /usr/bin/openssl :: configure: error: --with-mailuser missing :: :: What am I doing wrong?

You should probably add a --with-mailuser=mail or whatever you're using for your MTA.

However, if you're running RH 7, why not just do:

rpm -ta courier-imap-1.3.5.tar.gz

and build an rpm package? The SPEC file is included in the tarball. Just remember to build as a normal user, making either /usr/src/redhat writeable for that user or by following the hack ;-) documented at http://courier.sourceforge.net

Cheers,
