The following entries should be sufficient for most purposes:\n client = yes
This line assumes that the IMAP server is already configured to support encrypted communication.įor newer versions of Stunnel, edit nf and add an entry to the IMAP tunnel. You should substitute with the hostname of the IMAP server you are connecting to. To set up a Stunnel connection, execute this command:\n /usr/sbin/stunnel -P/tmp/ -c -d 10143 -r :993 if you don't have login access on the IMAP server, you must use Stunnel. The drawback of using SSH port forwarding as opposed to Stunnel is that you must be able to SSH/login to the IMAP server you are connecting to. This command creates a tunnel from port 1430 on the client machine to port 143 on the server side, so you just configure SquirrelMail on the client to connect to port 1430, and it tunnels through SSH to port 143 on the server. In most cases the IMAP server and SSH server will be the same, but in my case I tunnel through a firewall, so the IP address of the IMAP server is the local IP address of the IMAP server (as seen from the SSH server). Where "" is the IP address of the IMAP server and "hostname" is the hostname/IP address of the SSH server. All you have to do is:\n ssh -N -f -L1430::143 hostname With an SSH tunnel, it is secure like an SSL connection, but it is set up once, and stays up, probably until one of the systems is rebooted. This would create a significant amount of overhead. Of course, SquirrelMail is less than optimal when it comes to IMAP connections (it makes a new one for every IMAP request). The reason is that if you just wrap both ends in Stunnel, you have to setup an SSL connection, do your little IMAP request, then tear down the SSL connection. If your servers are separate or if you must force encrypted communication to your IMAPS server, try using Stunnel, creating an SSH tunnel or using VPN. If your mail server is the same as your web server, there is no need for the encrypted communication. The biggest downside with Stunnel is the amount of overhead to establish a secure connection to the IMAP server, especially when we hit the IMAP server so frequently (nearly every page click). Stunnel allows to add SSL support to client that doesn't support SSL. If you can't use PHP with the OpenSSL extension, try tunneling SquirrelMail through Stunnel. You will then receive an e-mail message with the sign in information.

To create an account, please fill out the registration form completely and accurately. More information can be found in doc/authentication.txt and SquirrelMail Administrator's Guide. A Client Account is required for purchasing licenses. It requires SSLv3 or TLS support on SSL enabled server. Does Squirrelmail access imap servers differently to ordinary client apps any suggestions would be most welcome.

I host several domains in a vps and have all email forwarded to gmail addresses, which works, but I'd like to set up my own email, so I don't have to rely on gmail anymore. I've been at this for several days and, in spite of countless searches, haven't been able to find a solution.
