The ebuild

(I cannot confirm that it works properly. The problem is, that aeromail need to
write a config.inc.php file and I could not get it to do so. I'm not sure why
this is, maybe because of an error in the ebuild (which I doubt), maybe because
of the default location of the php-session aeromail comes with
(/usr/local/lib/...). I think it's the last one, but I had NO idea, where to
store that session.

AeroMail needs "register_globals = On" in php.ini to be able to write the config file. This is not mentioned in the documentation for the package which I find slightly dubious. 
The ebuild should check whether IMAP support has been compiled into php.

WONTFIX due to register_globals = On requirement.
