How to Configure SquirrelMail
SquirrelMail is a web-based email application written in PHP. It can be used on any web server that has PHP installed and access to an SMTP or IMAP email server. The pages are presented in pure HTML 4.0 and do not require JavaScript. SquirrelMail comes with an address book, the ability to manipulate folders and strong MIME support. Other functionality is provided by plug-ins available from the SquirrelMail website (see "Additional Resources," below).
