Hello

We have found a way to avoid these problems.

We have deleted this code in src/redirect.php:

--------------------------------------------------------------------
if (function_exists('session_regenerate_id')) {

    session_regenerate_id();

    // re-send session cookie so we get the right parameters on it
    // (such as HTTPOnly, if necessary - PHP doesn't do this itself

    sqsetcookie(session_name(),session_id(),false,$base_uri);
}
-------------------------------------------------------------------

and this code in function/global.php:

--------------------------------------------------------------------

sqsetcookie(session_name(), $_COOKIE[session_name()], 1, $base_uri . 'src');
sqsetcookie(session_name(), $_COOKIE[session_name()], 1, $base_uri .
'src/');

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Maybe some of the developers can explain the implications of these changes.

With these changes, users logged in squirrelmail under the upgrade will
get the "you must be logged in" error, but everything will work without
problems when they logg in again after this.

It have been a nightmare since 1.4.19 was released knowing the version
we had in production had serious security problems and not been able to
upgrade.

We are very disappointed  with the null respond from developers we have
had on this issue.
