IMAP Toolkit Environment 21 May 2001 Mark Crispin UNIX QUICK BUILD NOTES 1) Look in imap-2001/Makefile and find your system type code, e.g. slx for glibc Linux and/or Linux with shadow password security. 2) Type "make" followed by the system type, e.g. "make slx". 3) Install the POP2 daemon (ipopd/ipop2d), the POP3 daemon (ipopd/ipop3d), and the IMAP daemon (imapd/imapd) on a system directory of your choosing. 4) Update /etc/services to register the pop2 service on TCP port 109, the pop3 service on TCP port 110, and the imap service on TCP port 143. Also update Yellow Pages/NIS/NetInfo/etc. if appropriate on your system. 5) Update /etc/inetd.conf to invoke the POP2, POP3, and IMAP daemons on their associated services. 6) That's all! Read the file docs/BUILD if you need more detailed information and/or you don't understand these quick build instructions. MISCELLANEOUS NOTES mtest has been run under UNIX, DOS, Windows, NT, Macintosh, TOPS-20, and VMS. It is a very primitive interface, however, and is suited mainly as a model of how to write a main program for c-client. You should take a look at the source to figure out how to use it. Briefly, it first asks for a mailbox name (either a local file path or an IMAP mailbox in the form "{hostname}mailbox") and then puts you in a command mode where "?" will give you a list of commands. Pine is available separately on the FTP.CAC.Washington.EDU archives. The focus of development and support is for UNIX and Win32 (including Windows 95/98/Millenium, Windows NT, and Windows 2000). The other ports are not frequently used or tested, and may be incomplete.
