The Server Settings Backend plugin doesn't need to be enabled (and is
what has the SUID wrapper).
Server Settings is a plugin that presents an interface in SquirrelMail
and uses the Server Settings Backend API. It must be enabled. There
are many examples in its configuration files, including some for
presenting a vacation interface.
If you're not comfortable with that, the Local User Autoresponder
plugin is still a fine plugin.

The Server Settings plugin can put links in the menu bar as desired.
