I think of Squirrelmail as a remote MUA or an MUA proxy. The MUA
functionality remains on the Squirrelmail server--not on the client as
in a classic MUA. It simply uses the browser to do the GUI part of the
job. You have to explicitly request downloading of messages as they
ordinarily stay on the MDA. Ancillary things like contact lists,
calendars and whatnot are stored in databases on the Squirrelmail server
(or whatever its backing store is). Unless told otherwise, nothing stays
on the client. POP3 and IMAP are not involved between the Squirrelmail
server and the client accessing it. Only http(s).

Now that is a great description that I agree with. Maybe it was just how you worded it the first time that was confusing.
