Auth duties are already passed to your IMAP server; there are none built in 
that I am aware of. Squirrelmail simply takes the username and password pair 
provided via the login screen and tries to log in with them on the IMAP server. 
If they work, you're allowed in (and they are securely stored for future 
requests to the IMAP sever during that session). If they don't work, you're 
presented with the invalid login screen.

If your IMAP server uses your LDAP for it's account/auth info, there's nothing 
you can or need to do with Squirrelmail.
