Hello I'm hoping someone can give me a pointer as to how to compile Dovecot with MySQL support on Solaris. I am trying to compile dovecot 2.0.13 (also tried 2.0.9) on Solaris (OpenSolaris 2009-06, snv_111b) with the OpenSolaris provided MySQL 5.1.30 under /usr/mysql.

Running "./configure --with-mysql" stops here: ... checking for mysql_config... mysql_config checking for mysql_init in -lmysqlclient... no … [View More]configure: error: Can't build with MySQL support: libmysqlclient not found the libmysqlclient.so is to be found here: /usr/mysql/5.1/lib/mysql/ or for the amd64 version: /usr/mysql/5.1/lib/amd64/mysql/ And include is at: /usr/mysql/5.1/include/ I have tried various combinations of things in CFLAGS, CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS, but it doesn't change the configure error above at all.

So I setup amavis-new and configured postfix/spamassassin/amavis. Mail is still delivered properly but I do not see the spamassassin info in the headers of the email. I configured amavis-new and set "sa_tag_level_deflt" to -999 so that it would always show up but no luck. I updated the spamassassin config and enabled it. I also tested spamassassin manually running "spamassassin -t < someemail" and that returns the email with the X-Spam in the headers. If this is not the correct place to … [View More]
