alias cb='cd /extra/src/git/cmu/cyrus-imapd; make clean; git clean -f -x; aclocal -I cmulocal; autoheader; autoconf; CFLAGS="-g -W -Wall" ./configure --enable-unit-tests --enable-replication --enable-nntp --enable-murder --enable-idled --with-bdb=db-4.6 && make && sudo make install && sudo cp tools/mkimap /usr/cyrus/bin/mkimap'
