i swear this is a dup too. you appear to be confusing https, imaps, and pop3s. http or https are what you need to provide to the web browser that will access squirrelmail over the inter/intranet. imap or imaps is what squirrelmail will use to talk to the IMAP server behind the scenes to authenticate the user and get her mail, etc. Squirrelmail (and you imap server) have absolutely nothing to do with your ability to get to the login page via https - that's all in the web server config. once you've ironed that out (oh, and there are plugins to help you force SSL connections if needed), you can start with imap and squirrelmail (btw, if the two are on the same server, there's no need for a secure connection). oh, and pop3... SM isn't a pop client, but there is a mail_fetch plugin that allows you to access pop mail and pull it onto the imap server. so, make sure your web server is configured (and yes, the right ports have to be open), and that you can access the SM directory with https, and go from there... ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: INetU Attention Web Developers & Consultants: Become An INetU Hosting Partner.
