For the benefit of those who helped on irc last night, I eventually got Squirrelmail to work - though with substantial difficulties.
If anybody here (or reading the archive) has had problems with Squirrelmail on Ubuntu and wants help either email me on or off list. Have to say, Fedora did do this (Squirrelmail) better - though it also got a lot of other things pretty badly wrong, so I am very happy to keep using Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-uk mailing list ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk
