Browsers don't share their cookie/session information. But you have to remember
that some browsers don't have own HTML rendering engine and use engine provided
by IE. These programs can share cookie and session information.

SquirrelMail can have concurrent sessions in one browser. You just have to break
some backwards compatibility in plugins, reduce password security level and
update broken core scripts and plugins.
