I miss-read your original message, but the $defaultfolderprefix is used by squirrelmail to store stuff locally on the host stuff such as the 'Trash, 'Sent', and etc folders. Squirrelmail will work once it's configured correctly. I believe mailx/mutt by default accesses your email at the file level directly, where as squirrelmail does so via IMAP or pop3. Travis I'm not sure where you got the 'INBOX.' at, but that does not sound correct. If you set the '$default_folder_prefix' to 'mail/' and make sure the 'mail' direction exists for the user and is owned by the user, things should work. Since squirrelmail is not showing any new mail, I suspect the problem is with either IMAP or pop3, depending upon how you have configured things.

Can anyone give me some pointers? Maybe recommend another option?ĭescription First things first, I've got an Ubuntu 10.04 system set up on a linode, and I followed this guide on setting up mail ~~()~~() After that, there are no errors with squirrelmail - but I can't see any received email in the inbox. I tracked this down to a configuration within squirrelmail that the default folder prefix needed to be "INBOX." (with a period) and not empty (as is how it sets itself up if you choose dovecot). Note that I did get an error when I first set up squirrelmail and tried to use the web interface, that the Sent folder couldn't be created. With squirrelmail, I can send emails and view those – but not any emails received. With mailx and mutt, I can see the emails received from gmail to that user (though for some reason I don't see the sent email? why not?). I send back an email from that gmail account to the user, and it gets received. From one of the user's accounts, I can use mailx and mutt to send email to a gmail account (which it gets). The only thing I did different or extra from the guide was actually create a couple of users using adduser (and corrected some of the typos noted in the comments). First things first, I've got an Ubuntu 10.04 system set up on a linode, and I followed this guide on setting up mail here.
