Thanks, my problem was not due to Squirrel Mail.
It was the problem in SMTP Sever Configuration.
Sometime earlier when i setup SMTP server, I was
trying to give name to my host as 'mail' to
server as mail server. That was causing the problem.
I reinstalled and configured SMTP server, IMAP server.
This solved the Problem.
Thanks again.
