 finds the mailhome, creates a cache record in /var/run/sqwebmail.
 
 The only problem is: I can not see anything after login in. Just a plain white 
 page, no folders, no graphics, nothing. The browser fails to show any 
 html-code. The html sources and graphics should be O.K. (the login is shown 
 without any problems).
 
 What could be missing?

Search the source code for fork and exec, because there are *binaries* which
sqwebmail needs as well. The one which comes to mind immediately is gzip
(which must be in the same path as when configure was run; i.e. if it found
/usr/local/bin/gzip then your chroot environment needs /usr/local/bin/gzip).
Alternatively recompile --without-gzip.

If using ldap you also need the binary ldapsearch. There may be others; as
I say, go through the source.

and the winner was: gzip.
I do not know how I could forget this, I have trapped all the libraries, but 
overlooked a program that is in the configure options. (By the way, the 
ldap-authentication failure I had the first time had something to do with a 
missing file under /etc).

Thanks a lot.

Holger

 Can I somehow

Try this (adjust socket path to suit):

#!/usr/bin/perl
use Socket;

$authsock = /var/sqwebmail/authdaemon/socket;
$authtype = webmail;

$|=1;
print Username? ;
$user = ;
chomp($user);
print Password? ;
$pass = ;
chomp($pass);

$astr = $authtype\nlogin\n$user\n$pass\n;
$astr = AUTH  . length($astr) . \n . $astr;

# See 'man perlipc'
socket(SOCK,PF_UNIX,SOCK_STREAM,0) || die socket: $!;
connect(SOCK, sockaddr_un($authsock)) || die connect: $!;
syswrite(SOCK, $astr, length($astr));
$resp = ;
while ($line = SOCK, defined($line)) {
  $resp .= $line;
}
close SOCK;
print $resp;
