sudo apt install nginx

./configure --with-mail --with-mail_ssl_module --with-openssl=[DIR]/openssl-1.1.1
i got output: -bash:
./configure: no such file or directory

Hi there,
I believe that the module that you are referring to is only available with Nginx Plus.
You would need to remove the nginx web service and then you would need to first install Nginx Plus as described here:
https://docs.nginx.com/nginx/admin-guide/installing-nginx/installing-nginx-plus/
After that you can run the configure commands inside the Nginx Plus source directory.
Hope that this helps.
Best,
Bobby
