dovecot安装

dovecot安装

一、RPM格式

1。安装RPM包；
2。编辑/etc/dovecot.conf
其中，修改
protocols = imap pop3

passdb passwd {
 }

passdb shadow {
  }
3。启动

#service dovecot start

 

二、tar.gz包的安装

1。下载地址：(目前最新版本) http://www.dovecot.org/releases/dovecot-1.0.rc14.tar.gz

2。安装：

#tar zxvf dovecot-1.0.rc14.tar.tar
#cd dovecot-1.0.rc14
#./configure --prefix=/usr/local/dovecot --sysconfdir=/usr/local/etc --with-mysql --without-ssl --disable-ipv6

#make

#make install

# cp /usr/local/etc/dovecot-example.conf /usr/local/etc/dovecot.conf

 

3。建立启动进程所依赖的用户
# useradd -s /bin/false -d /dev/null dovecot

 

4。修改配置文件

编辑/usr/local/etc/dovecot.conf
其中，修改
protocols = imap pop3

ssl_disable = yes

passdb passwd {
 }

passdb shadow {
  }

5。启动

#/usr/local/dovecot/sbin/dovecot

 

6。可以把启动命令写进/etc/rc.d/rc.local文件，以使得系统启动时能自动启动服务。

#echo "/usr/local/dovecot/sbin/dovecot" >> /etc/rc.d/rc.local
