It's not Squirrel that is using this file you mentioned, it's your IMAP server that's living on the same machine ;) > > However, how can/would I bring this file over to a new server build of > Squirrelmail because the old server died?

If you just have the copy of the mailfile, there should be a way to integrate this in another server running the same IMAP demon. But this is a question to be asked in a imap mailinglist - or try using google ;) Good luck Roland. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Everyone hates slow websites.
