I've been running squirrelMail for a while now, and also just

in
the Left Panel, I am getting:

I had thought that this was working yesterday.
So my question is, what permissions does it require? I already have
enabled 777 on the Mail folder, but this is not helping. Is there a
simpletest script for this?
have you upgraded your unlisted IMAP server?
I'm using UW imap. Is there a better one? I'd like to get this updated
with as little fuss as possible.
I'm running Mandrake 10.1 and Mandriva 2006.
you are using modified UW imap version. I suspect that older uw version
was standard one and new uw imap server is modified to lock user in Mail
directory. set default prefix to empty string and remove all folder
options that are stored in user's preferences
It's the same server, been working, I just cannot figure out what
permissions are required where.
I tried the above, and still get:
*ERROR: Could not complete request.*
Query: CREATE "mail/Sent"
Reason Given: CREATE failed: Can't create mailbox node
/home/aewhale/Mail/mail/: Permission denied
Any suggestions?
1. If you have other email program running on the server - close it.
2. If you have SquirrelMail interface open - close it.
3. Find place that stores your SquirrelMail data directory and rename
aewhale.pref file or move it to other directory.
4. Go to /home/aewhale and backup contents of Mail directory.
5. Rename /home/aewhale/Mail directory and /home/aewhale/.mailboxlist file
6. Copy Mail directory from /etc/skel and change ownership of directory
and all files that all stored in it. Directory and files should be owned
by user whos home directory is /home/aewhale directory.
7. Start SquirrelMail configuration utility and set default folder prefix
to empty string.
8. Save your configuration and try logging into SquirrelMail.
9. If it works - restore mailboxes from backuped Mail directory. Keep
permissions and ownership that are set for new Mail directory.
If you have SELinux libraries installed on your system, setting
permissions to 777 is not a good idea.
Thanks Tomas, I have returned from vacation with my family, and have
implemented your steps.
However, I am sad to say that the problem persists.
