Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: squirrelmail-secure-login

The secure-login-config.php is installed with a default of:

        $change_back_to_http_after_login = 1;

even though, as noted in
/usr/share/doc/squirrelmail-secure-login/README.gz,

        If you turn on $change_back_to_http_after_login under
        SquirrelMail 1.5.2 and above, you will be unable to log in
        because by default, SquirrelMail 1.5 will only transmit cookies
        securely if the user's session started under https://.  If you
        really want to revert to an unencrypted connection after user
        login, you need to run the SquirrelMail configuration utility
        and change the "Only secure cookies if poss." setting (under
        "General Options") to "false".

It would be more user-friendly to provide a default configuration that
is compatible with the default configuration of squirrelmail.  Also,
change_back_to_http_after_login = 0 seems the more conservative default.

I'm on intrepid, with squirrelmail 2:1.4.15-3ubuntu0.1 and squirrelmail-
secure-login 1.4-1.
