Thanks, apologies for not coming across this in the main Makefile.
Uncommenting this resolves the problem on the server with the extra
libraries.

I will do two different compiles as the server with the full Solaris install
has the iconv libraries/modules below, while the servers that will be the
main MTAs have a smaller build of Solaris without any of these. I'm assuming
I will run into problems otherwise?

On the server that needed the EXTRALIBS set:

# pkginfo | grep -i iconv

Thanks again,
