Suexec is not supported. Sqwebmail can be made to work with suexec, but unless you can login as the vpopmail user or su to the vpopmail user then you can't do it. You'd also need to over-ride the location of the shared stuff like templates because unless you're root you can't put it in the default /usr/local/share/sqwebmail. Either you're in a very strange situation trying to install sqwebmail for a paranoid sysadmin or you're trying to get sqwebmail going as an ordinary web user. In the former situation you might be able to get the sysadmin to do the necessary stuff. In the latter you do not have a hope unless your web hosting username is the same as the vpopmail user. -- Paul Allen Softflare Support
