Unzip MIME-Lite-HTML-1.18.zip and copy contents of directory into cgi on your primary Ibay on your server do not place it into a subdirectory or an Ibay CGI or it fails. Now go to your physical server. Log into your server as root enter your password, (same as for admin) this should get you to a prompt Use Midnight Commander (type MC at prompt) cd /home/e-smith/files/primary/cgi For SME server up to 6 type the following remembering Linux is case sensitive perl Makefile.PL make test make installc Some test will happen and you should get 5 of 5 tests successful. You must CHMOD soupermail.pl ;So it can be wrote to. I think is chmod 755 soupermail.pl ;which will allow you as root to have write permissions on it For SME7 it appears a non standard installation is required NON-STANDARD INSTALLATION To install to a non-standard place else (e.g., "/soupermail/lib"), try this: perl Makefile.PL LIB=/soupermail/lib make test make install
