IMAP compaining it can’t find libmysqlclient.so.12?

Tested on FreeBSD 4.10
I recently ran into an issue with mysql, vpopmail, and courier-imap on freebsd 4-ten where everytime I would try to authenticate through imap, it would kick back an error that it couldn’t find libmysqlclient.so.12 error. The solution was to find / -name libmysqlclient.so.12, then ldconfig -m the path to where it was.

In my case:
/usr/local/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient.so.12
so
ldconfig -m /usr/local/lib/mysql

I then tried to authenticate again, and it worked.

So then I added
ldconfig_paths=”/usr/lib /usr/local/lib /usr/X11R6/lib /usr/local/lib/mysql” to /etc/rc.conf
and it works after reboot.
