If it works in IE (and because no one else has this issue), it's
probably something in your Firefox setup, or your web server... not
likely anything that SquirrelMail is responsible for.  You can install
the Cookie Warning plugin to get more accurate error reporting if the
problem is your cookies are being wiped out (but might be easier and
more informative to watch the cookies in FF yourself manually, where
you can also check the expiration info, etc.)
