HI, Ok, I found and (I think) used the right script - conf.pl to set things up. It didn't ask me for userids for logging in, nor for passwords. *shrug*
When I go to http://mydomain/squirrelmail ... I get a 404. I know the webserver is running, since I get my test page. How do I *START* the squirrelmail? I mean, I should at least see a sign-in page, shouldn't I? I'm very confused, since as I say, the directories and all of that were chosen by the RH install.
