Have you tried a locate to find out whether this library is on your machine ?

Example:

[dharshi]$ locate libcom
/usr/include/boost/config/stdlib/libcomo.hpp
/usr/lib/ooo-1.1/program/libcomphelp3gcc3.so
/usr/lib/gnome-vfs-2.0/modules/libcomputer.so
/usr/lib/mozilla-1.6/components/libcomposer.so
/usr/lib/libcom_err.a
/usr/lib/libcom_err.so
/lib/libcom_err.so.2
/lib/libcom_err.so.2.1
/opt/mozilla/thunderbird-0.6/components/libcomposer.so

See if the file you are looking for is present. I don't have the file on my 
system, so it may make sense to ask on the Courier mailing list if you could 
just link the /usr/lib/libcom_err.so.2 to /usr/lib/libcom_err.so.3 (this should 
be a really last last resort) or check to see if there is a new version of this 
library on a repository or if you are paying for RHN then check via up2date.

	Cheers,

	Aly.
