Though, the top four files in that list are red, and the 5th (maildrop) is black, in the filename portion.. Help? FWIW - I have tried it numerous times, I was chmod'ing the /var/tmp folder it complained about to compileuser and re-running to no avail. That was when I finally noticed after copy/pasting the /tmp directory that it was making new folders, and that they DID have what I think to be proper ownership. Thanks!
If you can not compile courier on your system, you can use dovecot instead. As it can be sometimes tricky to compile courier on fedor and as there are no rpm packages available, we switched to dovecot in the latest installation guides (for Fedora 13): http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect-server-fedora-13-x86_64-ispconfig-3-p4 I guess that the setup should work for fedora 11 as well if you use the fedora 13 guide.
