Along with checking what the server's PHP session lifetime is, you can
consider updating to more recent snapshot of SquirrelMail, which has
been changed to allow per-session anti-CSRF security tokens.  Also, the
Quicksave plugin will help in such situations, since it saves the text
of unsent messages (and a new version is upcoming with greater storage
capacity).
