must this be done at every boot, or is this for playing with modules
without restarting the whole server? Can't modules be turned off for
good in the configuration file?

I understand the suggestion, thanks. Lazyness, er, awe for
Squirrelmail gurus, still prompts me to ask if there is a ready list
of all and only the extensions actually needed by squirrelmail and
where. The paragraph
http://squirrelmail.org/docs/admin/admin.html#toc1.1 doesn't go into
so much detail...

These are all useful resources, also because I see very little which
is distro specific, thanks. My only doubt is, in the second, the
paragraph "Don't Use .htaccess". I have the feeling this could
interfere with Squirrelmail (it would create problems to some Drupal
configurations, for sure). What do you think?

Thanks again,
