Important Note - Solaris 9 comes with a slightly earlier version of perl in /usr/bin. You may wish to use this version rather than the version on sunfreeware.com. If you do install this perl and want to use it rather than the Sun one, you will need to have /usr/local/bin in your PATH before /usr/bin.
Which might mean that the version you have might not be right.
This is just a guess, but I hope it helps.

This might be a shot in the dark, but having recently battled through some quirks on Solaris 9, make sure that your perl binary is one that was compiled on the Solaris box with gcc ( unless of course you actually have the sun compiler and compiled cyrus with it ). The one from sunfreeware works. I was having all sorts of issues trying to install perl modules with the solaris CC compiled perl.
Hope this helps, B
Hi Robert,
the perl binary is the one from sunfreeware. It's version 5.8.3. So it should work? I use gcc version 3.2.2 also from sunfreeware. But I don't know if that perl version is compiled with gcc 3.2.2.
I also tried the perl that comes with Solaris 9 but that didn't work. I got an error message:
> make[2]: cc: Command not found > make[2]: *** [IMAP.o] Error 127
The compiling stops in the directory ./perl/imap. It seems that the Sun compiler is assumed from the perl binary shipped with Solaris. I think I try it with self compiled version of perl.
Thanks Thomas
