    Thanks for the quick response but I don't have that dir on my system. I do
    have this which is where the symlinks in rc.d point:

    blacklamb# pwd
    /usr/local/libexec/courier-imap
    blacklamb# ll
    total 67
    drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Jun 29 15:12 authlib
    -r-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel 3920 Jun 29 15:12 courierlogger
    -r-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel 48432 Jun 29 15:12 couriertcpd
    -rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 1586 Jun 29 15:12 imapd-ssl.rc
    -rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 1583 Jun 29 15:58 imapd.rc
    -r-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel 5848 Jun 29 15:12 makedatprog
    -rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 1572 Jun 29 15:12 pop3d-ssl.rc
    -rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 1460 Jun 29 15:12 pop3d.rc

    Unfortunately running a './imapd.rc start' in this dir as root makes the
    same error I describe above.

    Thanks,

    Drew
