Anyone know of an smtp server that will relocate easily (a la apache with ./configure --prefix)?
I've looked at qmail, postfix, smtp no-relay, and sendmail and all of them want to be installed into / with various droppings.
I'm looking for a solution to deliver local mail and one that could potentially move from one server to another without much effort (rsync a directory)
63,000 bugs in the code, 63,000 bugs,
ya get 1 whacked with a service pack,
now there's 63,005 bugs in the code!!
I ended up going with postfix and a rather large "make" command line to setup all the different paths by changing all the "DEF_" parameters and prepending my prefix.
Here are the parameters, as listed in the man page:
Code:DEF_COMMAND_DIR command_directory /usr/sbin DEF_CONFIG_DIR config_directory /etc/postfix DEF_DAEMON_DIR daemon_directory /usr/libexec/postfix DEF_DATA_DIR data_directory /var/lib/postfix DEF_MAILQ_PATH mailq_path /usr/bin/mailq DEF_HTML_DIR html_directory no DEF_MANPAGE_DIR manpage_directory /usr/local/man DEF_NEWALIAS_PATH newaliases_path /usr/bin/newaliases DEF_QUEUE_DIR queue_directory /var/spool/postfix DEF_README_DIR readme_directory no DEF_SENDMAIL_PATH sendmail_path /usr/sbin/sendmail
