[Dovecot] invalid mbox files

[Harout S. Hedeshian]

I installed libtool and I am now down to these errors:

[root at www dovecot]# ./autogen.sh
aclocal:configure.in:15: warning: macro `AM_ICONV' not found in library
configure.in:15: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_ICONV
      If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.
      See the Autoconf documentation.
