My trouble is with changing some of the defaults. Unless I'm missing something, all configuration is done through re-compiling rather than a configuration file. Not my preference, but I can deal with that. In particular I modify .../src/osdep/unix/env_unix.c to change the mail subdirectory name.

I thought after making this change, all I needed to do was '$ cd /usr/ports/mail/imap-uw' then type '$ make' to rebuild it with the changes. But it seems to think it is up to date (so doesn't recompile). So perhaps my confusion is really due to lack of understanding of the Ports system or of how to compile.

You should try the following:


cd /usr/ports/mail/imap-uw
make clean
make deinstall
make patch
[ ...change the env_unix.c file under the work subdir... ]
make
make install
