Must use stable branch of debian otherwise you see errno errors upon compiling ucspi-tcp

Once you get to the courier imap part - do this instead.

BTW its going to barf once telling you you need deps. just install em and get on with it.

Rumor has it you can compile vpopmail with mysql support by installing the following

# apt-get install libmysqlclient14-dev libmysqlclient14

Setup to provide spooling

Domains that we agree to spool for MUST have an entry in both /var/qmail/control/rcpthosts file like thus

whitecannon.org blackcannon.org redcannon.org

AND exist in a file called smtproutes /var/qmail/control/smtproutes here

whitecannon.org:mail.whitecannon.org blackcannon.org:mail.blackcannon.org redcannon.org:mail.redcannon.org

RBL CHECKS for qmailrocks

You must install rblcheck

--->  apt-get install rblcheck

I don’t know if this is manditory or not but I do it and it seems to work. You must make a symlink

--->  ln -sf /usr/local/bin/rblsmtpd /var/qmail/bin

and then edit /var/qmail/supervise/qmail-smtpd/run and add the following entries

exec /usr/local/bin/softlimit -m 40000000 
/usr/local/bin/tcpserver -v -R -l "$LOCAL" -x /etc/tcp.smtp.cdb -c "$MAXSMTPD" 
-u "$QMAILDUID" -g "$NOFILESGID" 0 smtp 
rblsmtpd 
-r sbl-xbl.spamhaus.org 
-r bl.spamcop.net 
-r relays.ordb.org 
-r dnsbl.njabl.org 
### -r dnsbl.sorbs.net   ### ---> don't know if I like this one yet
-r cn-kr.blackholes.us 
-r comcast.blackholes.us 
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd mail.rustyrackguys.com 
/home/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw /usr/bin/true 2>&1

Then restart qmail.

qmailctl restart
