[imp] unspecified function pg_pconnect() error ?

[JayasankarGNair]

Hi Rick,
     Thanks for the reply!
I've reinstalled Postgres on my IMP server.And now when I try logging in
,"no documents available error" comes.
I'm able to query my POP3 server through telnet as you said from my IMP
server.
But I dont have an IMAP server any where in my network.
If  I'm to setup sendamil on my IMP server itself and use the same machine
as my mail server what other things should I do?
When the mail server is the localhost itself what port should I give on the
login screen?
I'm planning to setup sendmail on the machine loaded with IMP.Will that be
fine?
expecting your response,
regards,
jayasankar.
