Dave's right.  SquirrelMail can't cache logins itself.  It merely asks
your IMAP server to authenticate what credentials you give it.
Therefore your problem is with whatever IMAP service you have pointed
SquirrelMail to, be it an IMAP proxy or the IMAP server itself.  If
you are really not running imapproxy, then my guess is that Dovecot is
not seeing the updated passwords yet.  You should seek help in the
Dovecot community for this issue.
