Maybe, some additional explanation is needed:

On Ubuntu 64Bit, we (28msec) are compiling c-client ourselves. Otherwise, the email modules do not compile (we created a ppa repository for this: https://launchpad.net/~28msec/+archive/cclient).

When I build the c-client library myself, I discovered that it has the symbol crypt in the static library if the crypt library is available on the system:
nm /usr/lib/libc-client.a | grep crypt
                 U ERR_load_crypto_strings
                 U crypt

The crypt library is located at /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcrypt.so. Somehow, it seems to be available at ubuntu 64 bit only. So, when the static c-client has the crypt symbol, the email module doesn't work without my fix. It's complaining: 

./bin/zorba -q ~/sausalito/build/test.xq  -f
operating system error [zerr:ZOSE0005]: "/home/dagraf/zorba/build/LIB_PATH/com/zorba-xquery/www/modules/email/libsmtp_1.0.so": error loading dynamic library: /home/dagraf/zorba/build/LIB_PATH/com/zorba-xquery/www/modules/email/libsmtp_1.0.so: undefined symbol: crypt; raised at /home/dagraf/zorba/sandbox/src/context/dynamic_loader.cpp:168

After googling and debugging for several hours, I managed to fix the problem by adding the crypt dependency to the linker. But I don't know why the static c-client library needs it ...
