I have it up and running with no issues. Maybe try to go through the
HOWTO again? What I usually do is look at the startup script and try
to make a test script to get it running. Here is an example for
starting courier-imap. Just copy it to a file and try to execute it as
root:
#!/bin/bash
ADDRESS=0
MAXDAEMONS=10
MAXPERIP=10
PIDFILE=/var/run/imapd.pid
TCPDOPTS="-nodnslookup -noidentlookup"
PORT=143
MAILDIR=.maildir
exec_prefix=/usr
/usr/lib/courier-imap/couriertcpd -address=$ADDRESS \
-stderrlogger=/usr/lib/courier-imap/courierlogger \
-stderrloggername=imapd \
-maxprocs=$MAXDAEMONS -maxperip=$MAXPERIP \
-pid=$PIDFILE $TCPDOPTS \
$PORT ${exec_prefix}/sbin/imaplogin \
/usr/lib/courier-imap/courier-imapd.indirect ${MAILDIR}

I'm a geek, but I don't get it. 36-24-36 = -24. What's the significance?
