This is a follow up to my previous request for help. I haven't found any reference to this previously (although I could have missed it).
background; I just upgrade from Mac OS X Server 10.3.9 (Panther) to OS X 10.4.1 (Tiger). I don't know what the previous version of squirrelmail was, but the current version is 1.4.4. After upgrading, I experienced a problem with the imap databases. This had become a well known problem and I have had to resolve it with the procedure detailed here http://www.afp548.com/comment.php?mode=view&cid=1438 This problem usually manifests with Apple's mail program, not squirrelmail. This time after reconstructing the database, some of my accounts started acting strange, in particular the INBOX and any folder with messages was no longer accessible. Furthermore, I could no longer mark messages as read and squirrelmail was now marking read messages as unread. (i.e. if I marked them as read in the Apple mail client, squirrelmail would undo that flag.) Resolution: I finally solved this problem by deleting the user.seen file in /var/db/imap/user. Of course, now all my mail is marked as unread, but squirrelmail and the Apple Mail program now work correctly again.
