Hi,

I am trying my hand at administering mail for my organization. I use FreeBSD
6.0 with Apache, QMail and Squid. I recently added a lot of other niceties like
antivirus and antispam services. One feature that I have installed, sqwebmail,
however does not work. I installed sqwebmail from the ports directory and then
added 'sqwebmaild_enable="YES"' to my /etc/rc.conf. My sqwebmail cgi is at
/usr/local/www/cgi-bin/sqwebmail/sqwebmail, while the hypertext data is at
/usr/local/www/data/sqwebmail.

But when I try to open the url
/cgi-bin/sqwebmail/sqwebmail">http://<IP_ADDRESS>/cgi-bin/sqwebmail/sqwebmail in
a browser, I get the message that the url could not be opened as connection to
port 443 was denied. Is this because of the Squid proxy server ? Logically it
shouldn't, because, just to be sure, I have put the following two lines into my
squid.conf :

acl sqwebmailport port 443 http_access sqwebmailport allow

But nothing seems to work. Can someone please help me out ? A lot of guys in
my organization keep travelling and touring, the webmail is the only feasible
way they can collect their messages.

Thanks for any help.
