Hello
i have installed dovecot  from rpm found on rpm.pbone.net
1.2.17-0_115.el5
Everuthing works as charm Postfix + Dovecot + TLS + MySQL/postfixadmin
For Reference:
Centos 5.6
postfix 2.3.3-2.2
dovecot 1.2.17-0_115.el5
spamassassin 3.2.5-1.el5
postfixadmin 2.3.3
amavisd-new 2.6.4-4.el5.rf
Now i'm trying to install Sieve for Dovecot 1.2 to make it redirect
spam in proper folders but getting next error:

./configure --with-dovecot=/usr/lib/dovecot/
        #OMITED OUTPUT#
dovecot-config not found from /usr/lib/dovecot, use --with-dovecot=PATH
to give path to compiled Dovecot sources or to a directory with the
installed dovecot-config file.
configure: error: dovecot-config not found


/usr/lib/dovecot/ - is dir where all plugins and other things are stored.
/etc is dir where dovecot.conf is located
/etc/dovecot is dir where i put dovecot sql config

Please help. I have no idea how to fix this. Especially when
everything seems to be working as charm.
