To enable Courier-MTA to start at boot time, |
| 24 |
set these variables in your /etc/rc.conf file: |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
courier_enable="YES" |
| 27 |
sendmail_enable="NONE" |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
Note: in newer OS versions you should change variables |
| 30 |
used in /etc/rc.conf file, as NONE for sendmail_enable |
| 31 |
is deprecated and will be not supported in future: |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
courier_enable="YES" |
| 34 |
sendmail_enable="NO" |
| 35 |
sendmail_submit_enable="NO" |
| 36 |
sendmail_outbound_enable="NO" |
| 37 |
sendmail_msp_queue_enable="NO" |
| 38 |
|
| 39 |
Also, you will want to disable some Sendmail |
| 40 |
specific daily maintenance routines in your |
| 41 |
/etc/periodic.conf file: |
| 42 |
|
| 43 |

If you are planning to serve shared maildirs, then |
| 53 |
you should create a cron job that runs at regular |
| 54 |
intervals (once every few hours is fine) that |
| 55 |
executes the following script to update the |
| 56 |
shared folder index: |
| 57 |
|
| 58 |
%%PREFIX%%/share/courier/sharedindexupdate |
