Hello, This is the same install that I orignally used for our cpanel servers. I tried this on DSM allowing for a site wide install of SquirrelMail while still leaving the other web mail the same.

All clients can add email accounts in thier control panels and then visit thierdomain.com/email to log in.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Some of the most notable features are:
External Pop3 Checker (Check unlimited accounts)
Email compose, Spell Checker
Incoming email translation.
Mail Filters
Spam Filers
Spam Cop Reporting
Html Email Viewing
Built in Calander
Mini Message Window, Shows when you new get emails
And more.. Add more plugins sitewide in a snap.

We have done a basic configuration so that you simply need to download the the file, unzip it, add a simple Alias to the top of httpd.conf, restart Apache and now every client or domain hosted on your server can use the same web based email client by going to http://thierdomain.com/email

For anyone who wishes to try this out, Follow the instructions below:

1) Login as root and cd /usr/local

2) wget http://www.sitehostz.com/files/email.tar.gz

3) tar -zxvf email.tar.gz

4) cd /usr/local/apache/conf

5) pico httpd.conf

6) at the very top of the file just under the Bandmin Alias, Add the exact same line for the email program like the following.

Alias /email /usr/local/email/

7) Restart apache.... /usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl restart

8) Now visit yourdomain.com/email and tell all of your clients that they can do the same.


To add new email accounts to be used with SquirrelMail, Simply login to your control panel and add the email accounts. For anyone who has multiple accounts, Use your main email account such as webmaster@yoursite.com to login with all of the time. Once logged in, setup the simple pop3 email checker to check all of your existing email accounts except for the one you choose to use as the main account. Now, everytime you log into the web based mail, you just checked all of your cpanel email accounts at once.

A quick way to check all of your email accounts is to use webmaster@yoursite.com and set this email addy as the default email under your control panel email settings.
