The Courier mail transfer agent (MTA) is an integrated mail/groupware server based on open commodity protocols, such as ESMTP, IMAP, POP3, LDAP, SSL, and HTTP. Courier provides ESMTP, IMAP, POP3, webmail, and mailing list services within a single, consistent, framework. Individual components can be enabled or disabled at will. After installing this RPM, additional information regarding configuring and using courier can be found in /usr/share/courier/doc. Particularly, README.REDHAT describes where everything is installed, and install.html contains the regular installation instructions, which includes configuration information. In particular, the courier-webadmin package will contain the web-based configuration tool, webadmin. After installing apache and courier-webadmin, and using the webadmin password in /etc/courier/webadmin/password (which is initialized to a random string by default), you will be able to configure Courier using any web browser. Available rpmbuild rebuild options: --without : fax
