$ grep dove /etc/passwd /etc/group
/etc/passwd:_dovecot:*:214:6:Dovecot Administrator:/var/empty:/usr/bin/false
/etc/passwd:_dovenull:*:227:227:Dovecot 
Authentication:/var/empty:/usr/bin/false
/etc/group:certusers:*:29:root,_jabber,_postfix,_cyrus,_calendar,_dovecot
/etc/group:_dovenull:*:227:


I'm trying to build on osx so I can try to do some debugging. The 
INSTALL.md says to do:


$ more INSTALL.md
Build Instructions
==================

For most people, the usual:

```
./configure
make
sudo make install
```

But there is no configure file. How would I generate the configure file? 
Is it generated? Been a long time since I've done open source C code..

Thanks

Mike
