CentOS 3.4 (think RHEL 3), with Apache 2.0.52, SquirrelMail 1.4.4, PHP
4.3.10 compiled from source using qmailrocks.org instructions.

All seems to work except that I have to enter "http://<mysite>/webmail/"
(with a trailing slash) into the browser's address bar to get the
SquirrelMail login screen to appear. If I omit the trailing slash, the
browser (both Firefox 1.0 and Konqueror) pauses for over five minutes
without displaying anything. In Firefox, the progress bar remains at about
50%. At that point, tacking on the trailing slash and pressing ENTER
displays a working login screen, so the browser isn't broken. PHP is
therefore running. I can browse successfully to phpinfo.php, or any other
SquirrelMail page after logging in. The index.php file in htdocs/webmail is
the standard "Locate: to src/login.php". The src/login.php file exists and
works - browsing directly to that address displays a working login screen.

Is this expected behavior, or have I missed something? All the examples I've
seen indicate the trailing slash should not be required. I know it will be a
source of endless support calls. . .

The only strange thing I may be doing is accessing the URL through 127.0.0.1
(and configuring httpd.conf with a VirtualHost of that address) as I am just
testing stuff out to see how it all hangs together before working on a
production system.

Thanks in advance for your help,

Richard.
