Well, what exactly are you doing? Explain how you go about building
courier-authlib, and maildrop. If you want to figure out what the
problem is, that cannot be done until you explain what you do.
Ok well authlib was installed through an rpm - there also seems to be a
courier-authlib-mysql rpm installed.
With maildrop ive done both :
rpmbuild -ta maildrop.tar.bz
and
./configure
./make
./make install
Ive tried setting LDFLAGS="-L/usr/lib/courier-authlib" and
LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/usr/lib/courier-authlib" and then running
config/make/make install and still nothing.
You make it sound as if the courier-authlib-mysql rpm is a sort of
automatic panacea in itself; it's not, you have to configure authdaemond
to use it through the MySQL module (if that's what you're wanting) and,
having done that, use the authtest utility to test it. All this is well
documented, both in the configuration files and supplied doco.
maildrop itself goes to authdaemond through libcourierauth for its
verification and quota routines, but authdaemond has to be configured
first. If that works, Courier IMAP ought to work too (after configuration ;)
