SquirrelMail doesn't receive mail - the local delivery agent (LDA)
transfers the mail from the SMTP server to the IMAP server. SquirrelMail
displays what the IMAP server has received.

When you read mail with Elm, where have you configured Elm to look? My
guess is that your Elm doesn't talk to the IMAP server at all but looks
directly somewhere on your file system (maybe the spool file). Check your
logs and also the mail queue in the SMTP server to see what's happening
with the mail.

Also, what happened yesterday? Software usually doesn't break on its own -
something was probably upgraded or reconfigured.
