|
3 To compile MasqMail you need glib 1.2 (http://www.gtk.org).
|
|
meillo@1
|
4
|
|
meillo@1
|
5 You need a user and a group for masqmail to run, I suggest user
|
|
meillo@1
|
6 'mail' and group 'trusted'. Say:
|
|
meillo@1
|
7
|
|
meillo@1
|
8 groupadd -g 42 trusted
|
|
meillo@1
|
9 useradd -u 42 -g 42 -d / -s /bin/sh -c "Mail Transfer Agent" mail
|
|
meillo@1
|
10
|
|
meillo@1
|
11 If you use other names than 'mail' and 'trusted' use the options
|
|
meillo@1
|
12 described below for configure. The 42 is just a suggestion, you can
|
|
meillo@1
|
13 use any number you like, but preferably one < 100. It does not have
|
|
meillo@1
|
14 to be the same for the user 'mail' and the group 'trusted'.
|
|
meillo@1
|
15
|
|
meillo@1
|
16 Then do:
|
|
meillo@1
|
17
|
|
meillo@1
|
18 ./configure
|
|
meillo@1
|
19 make
|
|
meillo@1
|
20 make install
|
|
meillo@1
|
21
|
|
meillo@1
|
22 Debian:
|
|
meillo@1
|
23 If you compile for Debian, do the configure with at least these options,
|
|
meillo@1
|
24 this makes it compatible with the official debian package:
|
|
meillo@1
|
25 ./configure --with-liblockfile --with-group=mail
|
|
meillo@1
|
26 you do not need the group 'trusted', use 'mail' instead.
|
|
meillo@1
|
27
|
|
meillo@1
|
28 You can also build your own Debian package with
|
|
meillo@1
|
29 dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot
|
|
meillo@1
|
30 You need to have fakeroot installed to do this. Or, as root, do:
|
|
meillo@1
|
31 dpkg-buildpackage
|
|
meillo@1
|
32
|
|
meillo@1
|
33 SuSE/Redhat:
|
|
meillo@1
|
34 There are spec files for rpm creation in suse/ or redhat/. You may have to adjust these files.
|
|
meillo@1
|
35
|
|
meillo@1
|
36
|
|
meillo@1
|
37 Sorry, but after that you are not yet finished. For instruction on how
|
|
meillo@1
|
38 to deliver mail using a connection to your ISP see
|
|
meillo@1
|
39 docs/install.html. It is probably a good idea to copy the files
|
|
meillo@1
|
40 docs/*.html to a directory where you can access them with a browser.
|
|
meillo@1
|
41
|
|
meillo@1
|
42 additional options for configure:
|
|
meillo@1
|
43 ---------------------------------
|
|
meillo@1
|
44
|
|
meillo@1
|
45 --with-user=USER sets the user as which MasqMail will run. Default is
|
|
meillo@1
|
46 'mail'. USER has to exist before you 'make install'.
|
|
meillo@1
|
47
|
|
meillo@1
|
48 --with-group=GROUP sets the group as which MasqMail will run. Default
|
|
meillo@1
|
49 is 'trusted'. GROUP has to exist before you 'make install'.
|
|
meillo@1
|
50
|
|
meillo@1
|
51 --with-logdir=LOGDIR sets the directory where MasqMail stores its log
|
|
meillo@1
|
52 files. It will be created if it does not exist. Default is /var/masqmail/.
|
|
meillo@1
|
53
|
|
meillo@1
|
54 --with-spooldir=SPOOLDIR sets the directory where MasqMail stores its
|
|
meillo@1
|
55 spool files. It will be created if it does not exist. Default is
|
|
meillo@1
|
56 /var/spool/masqmail/.
|
|
meillo@1
|
57
|
|
meillo@1
|
58 --with-confdir=CONFDIR sets the default configuration directory to
|
|
meillo@1
|
59 CONFDIR, in case you prefer another location than /etc/masqmail/.
|
|
meillo@1
|
60
|
|
meillo@1
|
61 --enable-auth enables ESMTP AUTH support (disabled by default)
|
|
meillo@1
|
62
|
|
meillo@1
|
63 --disable-pop3 disables pop3 support (enabled by default)
|
|
meillo@1
|
64
|
|
meillo@1
|
65 --enable-maildir enables qmail style Maildir support (disabled by default)
|
|
meillo@1
|
66
|
|
meillo@1
|
67 --enable-ident enable RFC 1413 support. If you have the libident
|
|
meillo@1
|
68 dynamic library installed, this will be linked, otherwise it will be
|
|
meillo@1
|
69 statically linked using the sources included in the package.
|
|
meillo@1
|
70
|
|
meillo@1
|
71 --disable-resolver disable resolver support. Without the resolver functions,
|
|
meillo@1
|
72 masqmail uses only gethostbyname() to resolve DNS names, and you cannot send
|
|
meillo@1
|
73 mail without a smart host. Not recommended. You save 3K at most.
|
|
meillo@1
|
74
|
|
meillo@1
|
75 --disable-smtp-server disable SMTP server support. You may want this if you do
|
|
meillo@1
|
76 not need masqmail to listen. In this case, you cannot use masqmail as a smart
|
|
meillo@1
|
77 host for other hosts on your LAN, you cannot use mail clients that send SMTP,
|
|
meillo@1
|
78 you cannot even use pine. In short, use of this option is discouraged unless
|
|
meillo@1
|
79 your resources are extremely limited.
|
|
meillo@1
|
80
|
|
meillo@1
|
81 --enable-mserver enable online detection by connecting to the mserver
|
|
meillo@1
|
82 (masqdialer system).
|
|
meillo@1
|
83
|
|
meillo@1
|
84 --with-libcryto instead of using the md5 and hmac functions within the package,
|
|
meillo@1
|
85 link dynamically with libcrypto. This applies only if you have pop3 or SMTP
|
|
meillo@1
|
86 AUTH enabled. Makes only sense if your resources are limited and you have
|
|
meillo@1
|
87 libcrypto installed. Untested.
|
|
meillo@1
|
88
|
|
meillo@1
|
89 --with-glib-static link with glib statically. This makes the binary larger
|
|
meillo@1
|
90 by around 30K (i386 architecture), but if masqmail is the only binary using
|
|
meillo@1
|
91 glib, you save some space in total, because you do not need the shared glib
|
|
meillo@1
|
92 library installed.
|
|
meillo@1
|
93
|
|
meillo@1
|
94 --disable-debug disable debugging, setting it on by command line or configuration
|
|
meillo@1
|
95 has no effect. Strongly discouraged, since you miss valuable information if something
|
|
meillo@1
|
96 goes wrong. You save 6K.
|
|
meillo@1
|
97
|
|
meillo@1
|
98 BTW, to get 3K of space, call
|
|
meillo@1
|
99 strip --remove-section=.comment --remove-section=.note --strip-unneeded src/masqmail
|
|
meillo@1
|
100
|
|
meillo@1
|
101 after make install:
|
|
meillo@1
|
102 -------------------
|
|
meillo@1
|
103
|
|
meillo@1
|
104 You can also use these instructions to omit 'make install' if you do
|
|
meillo@1
|
105 not want to use it.
|
|
meillo@1
|
106
|
|
meillo@1
|
107 Check that 'make install' worked correctly. The following command:
|
|
meillo@1
|
108
|
|
meillo@1
|
109 ls -ld /usr/sbin/masqmail /var/masqmail/ /var/spool/masqmail /var/spool/masqmail/input
|
|
meillo@1
|
110
|
|
meillo@1
|
111 should give output similar to
|
|
meillo@1
|
112
|
|
meillo@1
|
113 -rwsr-xr-x 1 root root 86955 Oct 14 14:27 /usr/sbin/masqmail
|
|
meillo@1
|
114 drwxr-xr-x 2 mail trusted 1024 Oct 14 14:29 /var/masqmail/
|
|
meillo@1
|
115 drwxr-xr-x 3 mail trusted 1024 Oct 14 14:27 /var/spool/masqmail
|
|
meillo@1
|
116 drwxr-xr-x 2 mail trusted 1024 Oct 14 18:32 /var/spool/masqmail/input
|
|
meillo@1
|
117 drwxr-xr-x 2 mail trusted 1024 Oct 14 18:32 /var/spool/masqmail/lock
|
|
meillo@1
|
118 drwxr-xr-x 2 mail trusted 1024 Oct 14 18:32 /var/spool/masqmail/popuidl
|
|
meillo@1
|
119
|
|
meillo@1
|
120 (important is the set-user-id bit for /usr/sbin/masqmail and the
|
|
meillo@1
|
121 ownership of all items).
|
|
meillo@1
|
122
|
|
meillo@1
|
123 Use the example configuration files in examples/ to edit your own. The
|
|
meillo@1
|
124 main configuration should go to /etc/masqmail.conf. I recommend to
|
|
meillo@1
|
125 make a directory /etc/masqmail for the *.route amd *.get files.
|
|
meillo@1
|
126
|
|
meillo@1
|
127 The default destination for the executable 'masqmail' is
|
|
meillo@1
|
128 /usr/sbin. Check that it has the set user id bit set. (chmod u+s
|
|
meillo@1
|
129 /usr/sbin/masqmail does no harm in any case).
|
|
meillo@1
|
130
|
|
meillo@1
|
131 If you want to replace sendmail, move your old sendmail binary to
|
|
meillo@1
|
132 another name and make a symbolic link /usr/sbin/sendmail ->
|
|
meillo@1
|
133 /usr/sbin/masqmail.
