This is at least not the intended behaviour. I don't think making the symlink is right, because we move the file for a reason: it used to be under /var but /var should not contain config files. SquirrelMail is patched to deal with the file under /etc That's why I'm curious that SquirrelMail fails at your site when the file is only under /etc. It copes here just fine. Any idea why your squirrelmail fails? Can you check whether those files are available in the respective locations, and if they're readable? From what version to what version did you upgrade? thanks, Thijs
