I have been using Samba 3.x for my Windows file share and printing.  I 
chose not to use FAM as the implementation on FreeBSD seems non-existant 
(where is the daemon?).  So, when I configured Samba, I unchecked the 
option for FAM.  Yet, when it runs, I still see that it is required.

I considered uninstalling FAM and rebuilding Samba, but, as it turns 
out, Courier-IMAP requires FAM as a dependency even though it is not a 
declared dependency in the Makefile.
Even though FAM was not selected when building Samba, I am getting the 
above errors.  Is there a way to avoid these filling my log files?
