Build Instructions | ||
================== | ||
|
||
For most people, the usual: | ||
|
||
``` | ||
./configure | ||
make | ||
sudo make install | ||
``` | ||
|
||
is enough. This installs Dovecot under /usr/local. | ||
|
||
If you have installed some libraries into locations which require special include or library paths, you can give them in CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS environment variables. For example: | ||
|
||
`CPPFLAGS=-I/opt/openssl/include LDFLAGS=-L/opt/openssl/lib ./configure` | ||
|
||
See `./configure --help` for a list of all available configure options. | ||
See [http://wiki2.dovecot.org/CompilingSource](http://wiki2.dovecot.org/CompilingSource) for more information. | ||
|
||
Running | ||
======= | ||
|
||
Start with the example configuration: | ||
|
||
``` | ||
cp -r /usr/local/share/doc/dovecot/example-config/* /usr/local/etc/dovecot/ | ||
``` | ||
|
||
Read through, and make needed modifications. | ||
|
||
Once everything is configured, start Dovecot by running "dovecot" binary. | ||
|
||
See Wiki for more information about configuration. If you're in a hurry, go at least through [http://wiki2.dovecot.org/QuickConfiguration](http://wiki2.dovecot.org/QuickConfiguration) | ||
|
||
SSL/TLS | ||
======= | ||
|
||
Dovecot used to support both GNUTLS and OpenSSL libraries, but nowadays only the OpenSSL code is working. |
