Cannot find IMAP library

Hi =) I'm sorry for sounding redundant, especially to all those who were very helpful in your prompt response to my posting (PHP4: IMAP trouble). Please bear with me as I have only been introduced to the world of Linux only recently. Thank you very much for your help, it certainly solved the problem of 'configure: error: cannot find rfc822.h. please check your imap installation.' However, I now have a similar problem at the some spot (Configuring extensions: checking for imap support ... yes). This time the message reads ... "configure: error: cannot find imap library. please check your imap installation." This problem was previously addressed in the PHP FAQs and ModSSL. After I downloaded IMAP from UW, this is what I did ... gzip -d -c imap.tar.Z | tar xvf - (in same place as where php-4.0.1pl2 is) I am currently creating a php spec file that will install PHP4 using an RPM. In my php spec file, I added the following lines to ./configure: --with-imap=../imap-4.7c \ --libexecdir=/usr/lib/apache \ --includedir=/usr/include/apache \ Then in imap-4.7c directory, I did "make slx" and copied the following files: cp c-client/linkage.h /usr/include/apache cp src/c-client/mail.h src/c-client/rfc822.h /usr/include/apache (this line consequently solved the 'cannot find rfc822.h' error) cp c-client/c-client.a /usr/lib/apache/libc-client.a ln -s /path/of/c-client.a /usr/lib/apache/libc-client.a Please note that my platform is Redhat Linux 6.2 and I'm using: Apache 1.3.12, ModSSL 2.6.5-1.3.12, OpenSSL 0.9.5a, PHP 4.0.1pl2, IMAP 4.7-5 apache-devel-1.3.12-2 imap-devel-4.7.-5 gd-devel-1.3.-6 openldap-devel-1.2.9-5 postgresql-devel-6.5.3-6 Thanks for reading. Your help is much appreciated. Regards, Adelaide
