Squirrel Mail

[tomowa]

Greetings, I just moved an account of mine here, to 'kick the tires', so to speak.
At another host I use, which uses cpanel, I can log in to squirrel mail via http://www.domain_name.com/sqmail/src/login.php
I tried that here and get an error 404.
Is there a shorter way to do that here, other than http://www.domain_name.com:2082/3rdp.../src/login.php

Thanks, Tom

Hi Tom,

You could setup a subdomain and redirect it to that address.
That'll give you a shorter address.

also i think the port for webmail is 2095 not 2082

Thanks for the help rjb,

Yes, your right, it's port 2095. When you do that, you end up at a page where you get to choose from Horde, Neomail and Squirrel mail. To make things easy for my users (or me having to explain things to them , I want to limit them to Squirrel mail, and the address to log into it becomes

h**p://www.domain_name.net:2095/3rdparty/squirrelmail/src/webmail.php

I guess the easiest way to make it 'easily' available (and have them try to remember it), is to just make a link to the address, and place it on the website.

Thanks again, Tom

If you make a subdomain and set up redirection for it to h**p://www.domain_name.net:2095/3rdparty/squirrelmail/src/webmail.php
you could then have something like webmail.domain.com going to squirrel mail.

Hey sjb ,

It finally sunk into me what you were saying! It's so simple even I could do it LOL.

I just changed the subdomain redirect to h**p://www.domain_name.net:2095/3rdparty/squirrelmail/src/login.php, and it's perfect.

Once again, thanks for your perciverance in getting your point across to me

Tom
