Happy SquirrelMailing!

On Firefox
https://localhost/squirrelmail/
starts SquirrelMail
login as user
starts "Current Folder: Inbox" page
Sent a test mail including cc and bcc to users on Mail Server. All of
them received.
Thanks for your assistance.
A further question, is it possible evoking SquirrelMail with
"https://domain.com/mail"; to shorten typing input? If YES, then how to
do it? TIA
B.R.
