Ok, below is the way I solve this problem
1. the most common thing, I do googling, and I got this URL http://www.squirrelmail.org/wiki/en_US/history/DataPermission
2. Because of my PHP run on safe_mode and recommended to be on, then I change the ownership of the whole squirellmail directory to my webserver user and group, I use chown -Rf apache.apache /home/httpd/squirellmail where apache is my username for the webserver
3. Viola!! It works

Solved, thank you :)
Although solutions to this problem are on the website, you should *always* post *HOW* you solved your problem, not just "solved". Please help out others who search for the same problem and find this thread - just "solved" is not useful to them.
Thanks,

Hi list, I just installed the latest squirrelmail, I experienced a little problem. The user can not log on, and it returns this error message : Default preference file not found or not readable! Please contact your system administrator and report this error. I have do chown -Rf apache.apache to the data dir so that it can read by apache, did I missed some steps here? Please help, and thank you :) Regards Willy
