however when I go to 'compose' and fill in my message fields as required
and then click send the page waits for a second or two and then returns
me to the 'now blank' compose page.

My setup.

SMTP Server: ESMTP Postfix (Snapshot-20011125)
IMAP Server: uw IMAP4rev1 2000.283rh

In a production environment I found UW Imap to be too slow. Just a thought. Courier is much better (although you will need to move to Maildirs rather than Spools).


PHP Version php-4.1.2-7.1.6, php-ldap-4.1.2-7.1.6, php-imap-4.1.2-7.1.6

This version of php is quite old. Can you upgrade? This could be the problem...


Web server: apache-1.3.27-3.7.1

Similarly with apache.

Here are two security vulnerabilities that have been fixed in later versions.

http://www.kb.cert.org/vuls/id/CRDY-5VSSNF

1.3.33 is the most recent version of the 1.X branch.

Platform: Red Hat linux 7.1
How your software was installed: Via RPM Packages

I don't mean to be a purist - but installing SquirrelMail from "source" is really easy. I suggest you do a:


$ rpm -e squirrelmail
$ wget http://heanet.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/squirrelmail/squirrelmail-1.4.3a.tar.gz
$ tar xvzf squirrelmail-1.4.3a.tar.gz
$ cp -Rp squirrelmail-1.4.3a /Your/Document/Root
$ cd /Your/Document/Root
$ ./configure


If need be, create directories for $data and $attach. Mine is /var/squirrelmail/data and /var/squirrelmail/attach

Make sure these are writable by the apache daemon.

Of course, all of this is in INSTALL...

SquirrelMail version: squirrelmail-1.4.3a-1

I'd like to decommision my Exchange box now that I'm about to become a
Unix admin again so any help would really be appreciated.

Hooray! The door to enlightenment is clear kohai.
