You don't need any plugins per se, although several will help your cause. The fact that you have things in MySQL isn't necessarily something that SM cares one way or the other about - because all SM does is talk to the IMAP server, the IMAP server is the one who worries about MySQL vs. local users, etc. Just point SM to the IMAP server and you should be able to log in right away.
Plugins that you might really like would run along the lines of (just thinking about helpful ways SM can talk to your MySQL email db; there are many other good plugins of course): VLogin (virtual host login) Change_mysqlpass (change mysql password) Mail_fwd (mail forwarding) > Hello; > > Brand new to squirrelmail, installed it last night using the rpm > found on the download page. I'm trying to get this working this > morning, and realize I have a "different" mail setup than > squirrelmail expects by default. > > OS: YellowDogLinux 2.2 > IMAP: Courier IMAP > POP: Courier IMAP > Mail server: Postfix (if that matters) > User authentication: MYSQL in a virtual domain environment > > So I have a system where the user records are all stored in a MySQL > table, and do not exist in the linux users table.
