| 4 For most people, the usual: | |
| 5 | |
| 6 ./configure | |
| 7 make | |
| 8 sudo make install | |
| 9 | |
| 10 is enough. This installs Dovecot under /usr/local. You must also rename the | |
| 11 configuration file to get it to work: | |
| 12 | |
| 13 mv /usr/local/etc/dovecot-example.conf /usr/local/etc/dovecot.conf | |
| 14 | |
| 1317 | 15 Read through it, make needed modifications and start dovecot binary. |
| 429 | 16 doc/configuration.txt tells you more about configuring Dovecot. |

| 25 SSL/TLS | |
| 26 ------- | |
| 27 | |
| 623 | 28 Dovecot supports both GNUTLS and OpenSSL. Dovecot prefers GNUTLS if it's |
| 29 found, but fallbacks to OpenSSL. If you wish to force using OpenSSL, give | |
| 30 --with-ssl=openssl to configure. | |
| 31 | |
| 32 For GNUTLS support you need version 0.5.5 or later. You can get GNUTLS from | |
| 33 http://www.gnutls.org/ | |
| 428 | 34 |
| 429 | 35 |
| 1157 | 36 Optional Configure Options |
| 428 | 37 -------------------------- |
| 38 | |
| 39 You can get a full list with: | |
| 40 | |
| 41 ./configure --help | |
| 42 | |
| 43 The options are listed like --with-thing or --enable-thing, usually they're | |
| 44 also enabled by default. You can disable them with --without-thing or | |
| 45 --disable-thing. | |
| 46 | |
| 47 Besides the standard options, Dovecot has added these: | |
| 48 | |
| 49 --enable-ipv6 Enable IPv6 support (default) | |
| 50 | |
| 51 Enable IPv6 support. By default it's enabled if system is detected to | |
| 52 support it. | |
| 53 | |
| 54 --with-file-offset-size=BITS | |
| 55 | |
| 56 Specifies if we use 32bit or 64bit file offsets. 64bit is default if system | |
| 57 supports it (Linux and Solaris does). You most likely won't have mails | |
| 58 larger than 2GB, so you may want to drop this to 32bit for a bit smaller | |
| 59 disk and memory usage. | |

| 70 | |
| 71 When Dovecot is compiled with this option and user's home directory | |
| 1577 | 72 contains dovecot.rawlog directory, all IMAP connections are logged into |
| 1157 | 73 timstamp-pid.in and .out files. This is mostly useful for debugging. |
| 74 | |

| 103 Dynamic Authentication Modules | |
| 104 ------------------------------ | |
| 105 | |
| 106 Dovecot can also dynamically load authentication modules from | |
| 107 $prefix/lib/dovecot/auth/ directory. Binary packages builders should use | |
| 108 them for auth modules which require external libraries (eg. LDAP and | |
| 109 vpopmail). There's no standard way to build them as modules currently, but | |
| 110 something like this should work: | |
