NeoMail won run, and its complaining about not being able to find “neomail.conf in @INC”. What happened?

A. (From the official FAQ): This is usually a permissions thing, make sure that neomail.pl and neomail-prefs.pl have the proper permissions to read the /var/neomail directory, and that suidperl is present and functioning properly. This is often not the case on Slackware Linux. When suidperl issues arise, most users have reported success after recompiling perl from scratch, making sure to say “no” when asked if their kernel is suid-script secure, and “yes” when asked if they want to use suid script emulation during the Configure script. This can also happen if you’ve recently updated your RedHat system. One user’s solution was to reinstall NeoMail. (Sorry, I have no more information as to what was actually happening there).
