注：
1.      Openwebmail是一个webmail程序，不同与微软的owa及imail的web方式，它不包含服务器端服务(本例中邮件服务器为sendmail);因此在运行Openwebmail的机器上需要安装Apache和Sendmail.
2.      Openwebmail多数程序是由Perl语句编写的，所以必须安装Perl及Perl相关包
3．下载所需软件包：在RedHatLinux AS3中安装openwebmail需要以下软件包  
1.  perl-CGI-2.81-88.4.i386.rpm
http://www.openwebmail.com/openwebmail/download/redhat/rpm/packages/rhel3/perl-CGI-2.81-88.4.i386.rpm
2.
perl-Compress-Zlib-1.21-RH9.i386.rpm
http://www.openwebmail.com/openwebmail/download/redhat/rpm/packages/rhel3/perl-Compress-Zlib-1.21-RH9.i386.rpm
3.
perl-Text-Iconv-1.2-RH80.i386.rpm
http://www.openwebmail.com/openwebmail/download/redhat/rpm/packages/rhel3/perl-Text-Iconv-1.2-RH80.i386.rpm
4.
perl-suidperl-5.8.0-88.i386.rpm
http://www.openwebmail.com/openwebmail/download/redhat/rpm/packages/rhel3/perl-suidperl-5.8.0-88.i386.rpm
5. 
openwebmail-2.41-20041126.i386.rpm
http://www.openwebmail.com/openwebmail/download/redhat/rpm/daily-build/openwebmail-2.41-20041126.i386.rpm
下面就开始安装配置：
Step 1:安装下载包
[root@AS3 software]#rpm –ivh
perl-CGI-2.81-88.4.i386.rpm
[root@AS3 software]#rpm –ivh
perl-Compress-Zlib-1.21-RH9.i386.rpm
[root@AS3 software]#rpm –ivh
perl-Text-Iconv-1.2-RH80.i386.rpm
[root@AS3 software]#rpm –ivh
perl-suidperl-5.8.0-88.i386.rpm
Step 2:初始化openwebmail
[root@AS3 software]#cd /var/www/cgi-bin/openwebmail
[root@AS3 openwebmail]# ls -l

3./var/www/cgi-bin/openwebmail/etc/defaults/dbm.conf[只需修改3处]，完整的内容如下：
#
# config file for dbm.pl
#
# dbm_ext
# -----------------------------------------------------------------------
# This is the extension name for the dbm file on your system
#
# ps: You can run 'perl openwebmail/misc/test/dbmtest.pl' to get value for this
# dbmopen_ext
# -----------------------------------------------------------------------
# This is the db extension passed to the dbmopen() call.
# It should be set to 'none' in most case. You need to set it to %dbm_ext%
# only if you use any DB File module in script explicitly
#
# ps: It is said this option needs to be set to '%dbm_ext%' on the Sun
#     Cobal server or Slackware 8.x.
#     You can run 'perl openwebmail/misc/test/dbmtest.pl' to get value for this
# dbmopen_haslock
# -----------------------------------------------------------------------
# If your perl dbm system will do filelock in dbmopen() by itself,
# set this option to 'yes' so openwebmail won't do unnecessary filelock
# before dbmopen. On most systems, this option should be set to 'no'.
#
# ps: If your openwebmail hangs after login or saving preference,
#     you probablely need to set this option to 'y, es'
dbm_ext                      .db
dbmopen_ext            .db
dbmopen_haslock            yes
smtpserver             192.168.0.111 //添加SMTP服务器的IP地址
ok,上面的文件修改完后，再运行./openwebmail-tool.pl –init执行初始化脚本
[root@AS3 openwebmail]#./openwebmail-tool.pl --init
有关openwebmail的配置就完成了
Step 3.修改APACHE的配置文件(httpd.conf)
[root@AS3 openwebmail]#vi /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
//添加如下语句
#===the start===
ScriptAlias /openwebmail "/var/www/cgi-bin/openwebmail/openwebmail.pl"
    AllowOverride None
    Options ExecCGI -Indexes
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
Alias /data "/var/www/data"
#===the end====
[root@AS3 openwebmail]#service httpd restart //重启apache
现在所以的工作都完成了，新建用户去测试吧
Step 4.进行OWM测试
