I don't think my startupitems are running at startup though, and I'm having trouble getting the mail aspect to work. From the terminal, if i try to manually run one of the startup items scripts as root, i get: root# /System/Library/StartupItems/CourierAuth/CourierAuth /System/Library/StartupItems/CourierAuth/CourierAuth: line 8: syntax error near unexpected token `then' /System/Library/StartupItems/CourierAuth/CourierAuth: line 8: `? if [ "${CAUTHSERVER:=-NO-}" = "-YES-" ]; then' ----- I get the same error when trying to run the CourierIMAP startup item from the command line. I have copied and pasted the text into these startup scripts but is there a simple syntax error i might have introduced?
