Just a thought from somebody new to sqwebmail.

Yes, the first thing I see when I invoke `make' is the disclaimer:

   ----------------------------------------------------
                        NOTE


   All questions regarding ANY vpopmail-related problems,
   such as compiling/building failures, or login errors
   should be referred to the vpopmail mailing list.
   Vpopmail questions sent to the sqwebmail or Courier
   mailing lists will be IGNORED.
   ----------------------------------------------------


IMHO, as clear as this implementation is, it would be at least an order
of magnitude _greater_ clearer if that disclaimer is the dead *LAST*
thing I see when make completes.

Have you ever typed `make', hit enter and went to take a dump?  I don't
know anybody who sits around trying to follow all of the scrolling data
during make ;>

What do you think?
