Updating Squirrelmail

Updating SquirrelMail
Move the current install:

cd /var/websites/mail/htdocs
mv squirrelmail squirrelmail.bak

Move the new version into your web root:

mv /extra/src/squirrelmail-<version> squirrelmail

Change the permissions in the new install:

chown -R nobody:nobody squirrelmail

It's recommended that you reconfig SquirrelMail from scratch when you upgrade (/var/websites/webmail/squirrelmail/config/conf.pl). If you do decide to copy over your existing configuration, run conf.pl to make sure that everything is ok.

cd /var/websites/webmail/htdocs
cp squirrelmail.bak/config/config.php squirrelmail/config
cd squirrelmail/config
./conf.pl

If you have installed any custom plugins or themes, copy them to the new SquirrelMail install.
If you have added any custom images (i.e. a logo), copy them from squirrelmail.bak/images.

Various bits of code, scripts, and procedures were put together with information from John Simpson's qmail.jms1.net website. It's an excellent resource on managing and setting up a Qmail server.
