Been spending the afternoon trying to set this up. Everything went fine until I came to the point where I run this:
mini:~/Desktop/courier-imap-4.1.2 j$ sudo make install-configure
make install-configure-local DESTDIR=
/usr/local/etc/imapd.dist: No such file or directory
/usr/local/etc/imapd-ssl.dist: No such file or directory
/usr/local/etc/pop3d.dist: No such file or directory
/usr/local/etc/pop3d-ssl.dist: No such file or directory
I guess I must somehow tell it to look in ./ for these files? What has gone wrong? I believe I have followed your guide down to the last detail..
thank you

How strange, I tried reinstalling courier-imap from scratch and this time it worked. I must have missed something.. beats me.
You might have missed something during the configure phase, still good to know you've got it working.

Er.. well, it died and I tried reinstalling the whole thing using something called MailServe (successor to Postfix Enabler), however it didn't quite turn out as I expected. So today I'll give another shot at installing this. I noticed you have several guides, and they differ a little - is the guide on this site (diymacserver.com) the most recent one?
Finally succeeded with setting up the mail server, however without virtual domains and MySQL - a little overkill for me as I have only two domains with a total of one user (me) :) Thank you, your guide has been helpful!
