I changed this from the default to something else, and get this message now:
Error opening ../data/default_pref
Could not create initial preference file!
data/ should be writable by user httpd
Please contact your system administrator and report this error.
I wonder if the problem is the mapping of Windows Directories to quasi-unix handling by Apache / PHP? Can someone cast any light on what a plausible setting for the data directory on a windows based config might be?
Apologies if this is all very mickey-mouse - but I'm new to all this :(

Hi Can anyone give me some guidance as to how I can get some sort of debug information from SquirrelMail to let me know what is causing a login failure? I'd like to see what SM is thinking the problem is - right now whenever I try and log in to our test server we just get bounced to screen saying 'you need to be logged in'. But no clue as to what it thinks the problem is.telnet imap-server 143Check CAPABILITY sting. If you have LOGINDISABLED - you are running system that does not allow plain text logins. SquirrelMail can use plain text login or ssl login when server is running on special port. STARTTLS on 143 port is not supported. Check cookies. SquirrelMail uses them Check your keyboard setting. Letter case and what you enter when you type numbers. Check server logs. SquirrelMail needs write access to temporally directory in order to store session information
