This is how I configure my sqwebmail 4.0.7 (sans latest patches): ./configure \ --mandir=/usr/local/man \ --datadir=/usr/local/share/sqwebmail \ --localstatedir=/var/run/sqwebmail \ --disable-changepass \ --disable-webpass \ --enable-unicode=iso-8859-1,utf-8,iso-8859-15 \ --with-authdaemonvar=/var/run/authdaemon \ --with-cachedir=/var/run/sqwebmail \ --with-cacheowner=vmail \ --enable-cgibindir=/www/mail \ --enable-imagedir=/www/mail/img \ --enable-imageurl=/img \ --enable-mimetypes=/etc/apache/mime.types \ --without-ispell \ --without-fcgi \ --without-authpwd \ --without-authshadow \ --without-authpam \ --without-userdb \ --without-vchkpwd \ --without-authmysql \ --without-authldap

There may be some old cruft left from earlier versions. The "without-authldap" is because my sqwebmail uses the same authdaemond as Courier IMAP (which does use LDAP in turn). I couldn't disable authdaemond compilation completely.

Since this is public a conversation I invite comments on my configure. Are the cacheowner and cachedir parameters totally obsolete these days? Anything else that is useless or simply wrong?

Hasse, I have used 'strings nnnnnn | grep "^/" ' to locate default directories in embedded in misbehaving binaries. See what your sqwebmail binary reveals.
