workThanks for your kind reply. I'll try using berkeley db as oppose to gdbm,
and using some other options.

Thanks,

The ./configure args I used that worked for compiling 0.38.2:

--with-db-api=berkeley --prefix=/Mail --with-mailuser=vmail --with-mailgroup=vmail --with-waitfunc=wait3 --with-mailuid=99 --with-mailgid=60003 --enable-workarounds-for-imap-client-bugs --with-shellpath=/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin:/Mail/bin --without-explicitsync --without-ipv6 --with-maxmsgsize=24000000 --with-maxformargsize=20000000 --with-maxargsize=20000000 --with-db=db --enable-utf7-folder-encoding --enable-unicode=iso-8859-1 --with-authchangepwdir=/Mail/libexec/authlib/changepwd

Hopefully something there will stand out as a reason why it's not working.

Sam,

Thanks for you kind reply. The reverse DNS was working fine. I did a reverse lookup using nslookup, and returns fine. There is no firewall.

I have packaged a version 0.35.1 I compiled long time ago, installed it on the same machine, and working fine.

That is the only version I found is working fine with Solaris 8 and above. I tried to compile version 0.36.1, 0.37.3, 0.38, 0.40.2, all have the same symptom.

All are compiled with: ./configure --sysconfdir=/etc/courier --with-db=gdbm --with-mailuser=nobody --with-mailgroup=nobody --enable-mimetypes=/etc/apache/mime.types --without- authldap --without-authmysql (for earlier than version 0.37 use --with-waitfunc=wait3)

All compiled with gcc 3.2.1

Even tried with Sun C compiler (Forte 7), with the same result. This took me 3 days. Kind of tired now.

My conclusion is, only version 0.35.1 works fine with Solaris 8 and above.

Andrew

Most likely the reverse DNS lookup and/or identd is stalled. Fix the reverse DNS, and/or disable any broken firewalls.
