Good Afternoon,

First of all, thanks for responding my question. I´ve solved the
problem with your help, thanks.

But I still have a question. I don´t want to install an IMAP server,
so, i´d like to disable this feature from squirrelmail, or else, if
I don´t have a IMAP server, it won´t work. Can you help me one more
time?

Regards,

First, don't worry about the double slash, it's not what is causing the
problem.

Second, what exactly have you specified in conf.pl for:
  4. General Options
     2.  Data Directory
     3.  Attachment Directory

What are the permissions for the specified directories?
The error message specifically mentioned write permissions, not read,
which implies it's trying to create preferences for a new user from the
default, and can't.

Also, do you have anything specified here:
  9.  Database
      3.  DSN for Preferences

Using a DB for prefs is completely optional, so don't fret if you don't
have anything specified there. But if you DO, what are the permissions on
the Database? Does the user specified in the DSN have access to add rows
to the DB?

See here for additional information about default_prefs:
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.mail.squirrelmail.user/8849/match=schnabel+de
fault+pref

For comparison purposes, here's what I've got:

2.  Data Directory              : /var/spool/php_apps/sm_data/
3.  Attachment Directory        : /var/spool/php_apps/sm_attach/

And those directories have the following permissions ;)

drwxr-xr-x   21 root     root         4096 Apr 28 19:38 var/

drwxr-xr-x    9 root     root         4096 Apr 10 01:13 spool/

drwxr-xr-x    9 root     root         4096 Feb  9 14:51 php_apps/

drwx-wx---    2 root     apache       4096 May  2 13:26 sm_attach/
drwxr-x---    2 apache   apache       4096 May  1 08:15 sm_data/

where my webserver runs as apache.
