I've been a longtime balsa user and am a huge
fan. Recently I've tried out the gentoo Gnu/Linux distro. I'm very
impressed with it. I've managed to get most of my web apps and other
configured and working. The only application that I can't get to work is
Balsa. This is a HUGE hurdle for me. I know the other MUA's out
there, but I'm about to switch back to Debian due to this. This is more of
a gentoo problem than a balsa problem, but I'm getting no help on the gentoo
side. When running autoconf, it quits with a esmtp error. Yet I've
installed libestmp both from the gentoo install (`emerge libesmtp`) and
downloading the latest source and doing it by hand. Then trying to install
balsa through the emerge tool, or by downloading the source, I still get the
esmtp failure. Does anyone know how to get around this? Thanks for
any reply. Regards, Lang |
