hi.

Just FYI: I just commited 3.1.9 ebuild so Gentoo users should be able to install it using the ebuild as soon as the mirrors sync.

Hi Thomas,

thanks for maintaining dbmail for gentoo. I seem to have a problem with the .pid file in 3.1.7. After a reboot I get

dbmail-imapd[3704]: [0x750230] EMERGENCY:[pidfile] pidfile_create(+113): Cannot open pidfile [/var/run/dbmail/dbmail-imapd.pid], error was [No such file or directory]

in /var/log/dbmail.err when I try to start dbmail. Somehow the /run/dbmail directory gets deleted (/var/run is a symlink to /run). I'm not really sure why it's using the dbmail subdirectory because the /etc/dbmail/dbmail.conf file I have

pid_directory         = /var/run

in the [DBMAIL] section.

Not really sure if this is a gentoo specific error, and it's easily fixed by manually creating the dbmail directory. My server normally stays up for months at a time so not a huge impact, but I do need to remember an go and manually fix things when a reboot happens.

Thanks,
Ken.
