SquirrelMail takes your log in credentials and pass them to the IMAP
server. The IMAP server verifies that the credentials are valid and gives
you access. If you can't log in through SquirrelMail, make sure that you
can log in using other tools.

CLI Example:

mutt -f imap://[username]@[imapserver]

X Example:

Thunderbird or any similar client.

If no other clients work you have a problem with your IMAP server. Make
sure that the account really is added to the IMAP server and check you
IMAP server configuration.

Describe all things you tested in a mail to this mailing list if you still
can't get it to work. Include log files form your IMAP server showing a
failed log in with SquirrelMail and a successful log in with another
client.

Sincerely,
Fredrik
