    Amen.

    I didn't install the rpm & didn't think that a basic
    Mandrake install (I'm just using it as a i586 platform
    to run a black box email server) would include sasl.

    By the way, I'm using Mandrake based on the
    supposition that a platform where everything is
    compiled for i586 rather than i386 (ala RedHat) would
    be quicker. I'm using i686 processors.

    Have compiled OpenSSL, SASL, Cyrus, & Postfix on this
    machine to control the build options & also hope that
    a package compiled for/on this box will run faster
    than a pre-compiled rpm.

    Is this logic correct?

    Would compiling BerkleyDB/MySQL/Postgres help me in
    this regard also? (Currently all Mandrake i586 rpms)
