Installation instructions
=========================

The simplest way to compile this package is:

  1. `cd' to the directory containing the package's source code and type
     `./configure' to configure the package for your system.  If you're
     using `csh' on an old version of System V, you might need to type
     `sh ./configure' instead to prevent `csh' from trying to execute
     `configure' itself.

     Running `configure' takes awhile.  While running, it prints some
     messages telling which features it is checking for.

  2. Type `make' to compile the package.

  3. Optionally, type `make check' to run any self-tests that come with
     the package.

  4. Type `make install' to install the programs and any data files and
     documentation.

  5. You can remove the program binaries and object files from the
     source code directory by typing `make clean'.  To also remove the
     files that `configure' created (so you can compile the package for
     a different kind of computer), type `make distclean'.  There is
     also a `make maintainer-clean' target, but that is intended mainly
     for the package's developers.  If you use it, you may have to get
     all sorts of other programs in order to regenerate files that came
     with the distribution.

Since there's an available port, FreeBSD users can install archmbox by
typing:

	$ cd /usr/ports/mail/archmbox/
	$ make install 

Archmbox and environment variables
==================================
The following environment variables can be set at configuration time and
affect archmbox's behavior. See 'configure' help for more details.

TMP_DIR:	Working directory for temporary mailboxes (default: /tmp)

Upgrading from versions older than 4.5.0
========================================

From version 4.5.0 archmbox requires the mailboxes to be specified with
full path. Check out your scripts and cron jobs, as they may not work any
longer.

Upgrading from versions older than 4.3.0
========================================

From version 4.3.0 Archmbox has no default running mode (previously was
"archive"), so you have to specify the appropriate option on the command
line. Check out your cron jobs or scripts, as the may not work any
longer.
