Compiling Courier-imap Problems

I downloaded (from Suse FTP site) and recompiled courier-imap from source to add support for MySQL in the authentication modules. Configuration, compiling and installing according the the INSTALL file went with only minor problems EXCEPT the install failed to update the files in /usr/sbin or /etc/courier. Is there some way to assure this gets done without having to manually modify the makefiles? Did I miss something in the recompile process? (I did untar the download file and run configure and make as a non-root user; make install was run as root.) Thank you, Lucky Leavell
