In /etc/squirrelmail there is a config.php that you can edit

Or just copy this to run the squirrelmail script
/usr/share/squirrelmail/config/conf.pl
Which will walk you through the setup/configure

Also you will want to make sure that you are running IMAP server since
squirrelmail is IMAP.

About what I can think of at the moment :)

Hi,

I've read the webpages about installation and configuration at the .org
address, and am a bit lost.

I don't have to install (or I don't *THINK* I have to install)
squirrelmail, as it came installed via my choices in the installation of
RedHat 8.0.  What I don't know, however, is 
where the ./configure is that is mentioned at :
http://www.squirrelmail.org/wiki/InstallingSquirrelmailUnix  -- I don't
seem to have an executable named CONFIGURE (caps 
mine) in any of the squirrelmail directories.  The output from a FIND /
-NAME SQUIRREL*  (caps mine again) are :

[root@declan prefs]# find / -name squirrel*
/usr/share/doc/squirrelmail-1.2.7
/usr/share/doc/squirrelmail-1.2.7/plugins/squirrelspell
/usr/share/squirrelmail
/usr/share/squirrelmail/locale/bg_BG/LC_MESSAGES/squirrelmail.mo
/usr/share/squirrelmail/locale/bg_BG/LC_MESSAGES/squirrelmail.po
/usr/share/squirrelmail/plugins/squirrelspell
/var/lib/squirrelmail
/var/spool/squirrelmail
/etc/cron.daily/squirrelmail.cron
/etc/httpd/conf.d/squirrelmail.conf
/etc/squirrelmail
[root@declan prefs]#


Which doesn't really indicate to me where squirrelmail was "installed".
*scratching head*  I'm assuming that I can directly edit the
/etc/httpd/conf.d/squirrelmail.conf   file, 
but wanted some sort of confirmation about this stuff before wading in,
hip-deep.

Is there a doc that describes how to configure the .conf file?  How do I
*start*  squirrelmail, once it's configured?  I have sendmail configured
to start at boot, is there a way to 
do the same for squirrelmail (via, I would assume, chkconfig) ???

While it is all nice and convenient that RH 8.0 does the install for me,
it seems that the doc on the website assumes I will be in control of
directories, binaries etc., and that is 
not the case now.

HELP!  :)  I'm kinda a newbie, but not really.  I know how to do the
basic stuff, and can manage to get myself in trouble by attempting to go
beyond my skill level, on a 
REGULAR basis.  So if and when you reply, please excuse my ignorance in
advance, and try to remember when this was all new and exciting to you
too.  :)
