Description Warren Howard 2005-10-23 06:49:42 UTC
Hi,

The exim-4.50-r1.ebuild currently sets the path to the saslauthd socket to be
/var/lib/sasl2/mux.  However I'm using /var/state/saslauthd/mux as the location
for the saslauthd socket since this is where cyrus-imapd expects to find the
socket.  Can you please provide an option for exim to find the saslauthd socket
at the location /var/state/saslauthd/mux?  This would be most helpful.

Regards,


Warren.

Comment 1 Warren Howard 2005-10-23 07:01:19 UTC
Hi again,

BTW, I just worked out that I can use a symbolic link to allow exim and
cyrus-imapd to work together at the same time.  So the different socket
locations is not such a huge problem.

Regards,


Warren.
Comment 2 Jakub Moc (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-10-23 07:07:05 UTC
OK, so I suppose this bug can be closed.
