Please check php configuration same way SquirrelMail scripts are executed. PHP settings can depend on the way scripts are executed and on script location. http://www.squirrelmail.org/wiki/TestPHPSettings You haven't answered question about chroot. -- Tomas ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by xPML, a groundbreaking scripting language that extends applications into web and mobile media.
