Why the cclient dependency (for the IMAP extension of PHP) doesn't show up in your grepping of ports I don't know, but it's an easy check for you to test that the IMAP extension for PHP either comes with cclient bundled, or with a dependency on it that's slightly hidden in the Makefile. -- Heiko Wundram Product & Application Development
