Thanks Aaron. Even though it didn't make sense to me why apache would be able to write to all but one log file, I changed the user and group on its log directory, and it works. However, I still can't use https. According to my ssl_engine.log, ssl works.

Yes, my lynx has https support, and yes, the sqwebmail binary is running properly. As you can see Aaron, the rewrite rule you gave me does work. Looking up www.romuald.net.eu.org Making HTTP connection to www.romuald.net.eu.org Sending HTTP request. HTTP request sent; waiting for response. HTTP/1.1 302 Found Data transfer complete HTTP/1.1 302 Found Looking up www.romuald.net.eu.org Making HTTPS connection to www.romuald.net.eu.org Alert!: Unable to connect to remote host. lynx: Can't access startfile http://www.romuald.net.eu.org/cgi-bin/sqwebmail So, my only guess is that I screwed up somewhere in mod_ssl.conf. If someone could please take the time to look it over and help me learn, please write me privately. Your time would be appreciated. Thanks.
