I've been going round and round with this, and its driving me nuts.
Previously, dovecot was erroring out during make due to some MySQL library
issues. I thought I had that fixed, but now the compiled version I'm getting
says it doesn't have MySQL support. I just started over, and noticed that
./configure is saying:

Install prefix ...................... : /usr/local
File offsets ........................ : 64bit
I/O loop method ..................... : poll
File change notification method ..... : dnotify
Building with SSL support ........... : no
Building with IPv6 support .......... : yes
Building with pop3 server ........... : yes
Building with mail delivery agent .. : yes
Building with GSSAPI support ........ : no
Building with user database modules . : static prefetch passwd passwd-file
checkpassword sql (modules)
Building with password lookup modules : passwd passwd-file shadow
checkpassword sql (modules)
Building with SQL drivers ............:

I've tried running with:

CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include/MySQL LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/lib
./configure --with-MySQL

But same result. No MySQL support noted by ./configure.

Any tips? Please help.

Thanks.
