Thanks to Charles Bailey and OpenMacNews for their kind and helpful
words of wisdom.
And as for websrvr,
What is your problem? I merely asked a question. You might want
to check yourself with respect to admonishments of etiquette. Are
you having a bad day? Did your dog die? Sheesh. I have tried to
be kind and ignore you, but I now must say that you have thus far
posted the most pompous, self-righteous and useless gusts of babble
I've ever had directed at me on a mailing list, and I've been on
many mailing lists over the years. And all this without answering
a single question! Wow!
Fortunately for me, I do not need your help, as other kind souls
have by now chipped in and given me the information I needed.
Otherwise, I guess I'd spend all day arguing with you about the
proper way to ask my question, and I'd never get anywhere.
Are you a total idiot???
When I sent you a reply I asked a question, this question was to
determine how to best help you yet you ignored the question because
you didn't scroll down to the end of the mail and see it or you
ignored it out of ignorance.
As well, the question was sent off-list and you posted the message to
the list, also not recommended as list etiquette goes.
Now you feel indignant and post this drivel because your intelligence
has prevented you from actually responding in a human manner, please,
get a life.
I'm not about to get into a pissing contest with you, if you solved
your problem good for you, share your solution and move on.

OK, so we've established that I'm using a non-standard prompt.
My apologies. I'm just looking for some help. Does anybody
have any ideas how I can overcome this build problem?
I Offered assistance but asked a question which required a
response to better assist you which you ignored.
This message that I am responding to is what is commonly refereed
to as top posting, in a public forum this is considered bad
etiquette.

Hi,
I'm sorry if this is in a doc somewhere, I would think this
has been asked, but cannot see any posts on this subject in
the list (the info-cyrus archive search engine is slow, as
well, so I couldn't do a good number of searches).
Anyhoo,
I tried to run configure on OS X tiger and got the following:
What are you trying to build?
[EMAIL PROTECTED] (cyrus-imapd-2.2.12): uname -a

Found this in the config.log:

With some builds, I can sort of guess my way into something
that works, but Cyrus seems to be a bit abstruse to my
eyes. :-) Help?
Thanks in advance...
You provide little information to determine what software your
problem is with so how can help or a solution be offered?

Let's first get some basics out of the way so we can determine
if you are wasting your time.
Why are you building CyrusIMAP ?
