During connection to localhost password information is not transmited over unsafe network. Please note, that if your imap server is on the same host as webserver with SquirrelMail, ssl adds security features that are useless. You will need to remove your cclient library package before installing the imap-uw package.

If your server already has cclient installed, this approach will not work. If you don't want to recompile - enable plain text login in /etc/c-client.cf. SquirrelMail and RoundCube are challenging to use.

You must remove prepackaged versions of imap-uw and cclient before doing this. I really like Hordes mobile UI, and the mail client was pretty easy to install separate from the rest of it. Remember that SquirrelMail still needs to authenticate against your. Common uses of this plugin are for environments that employ HTTP authentication or have implemented single sign-on systems.

FreeBSD - You must recompile cclient and imap-uw packages from ports and set WITHOUT_SSL or WITH_SSL_AND_PLAINTEXT variables. This plugin tells SquirrelMail how to understand when users have been externally authenticated, in which case the SquirrelMail login page is unnecessary.

Use plaintext package or enable plain text login in /etc/c-client.cf

OpenBSD - there are two different packaging flavors.

Create c-client.cf file manually or dpkg-reconfigure uw-imapd, enable IMAPS and set SquirrelMail to use IMAP over SSL or use different IMAP server.

Debian Sarge - Plain text logins are not enabled.

The rebuild documentation for uw-imapd is here: WARNING: uw imap developers discourage usage of /etc/c-client.cf options because plaintext authentication without encryption is in violation of the IETF security requirements. Correct sentence can be found in uw imap source or imaprc.txt document. This phrase does not look like normal option, but uw imap will refuse to parse other options, if this phrase is not present. Please remember that you must use specific phrase in first line of /etc/c-client.cf. See doc/imaprc.txt for further information. In order to enable plain text logins in uw-imapd, you will need to use the semi-official /etc/c-client.cf Using any of these options will make it so you don't have to rebuild uw-imapd from source or be non-compliant with current IETF security requirements. You may be able to use the IMAPS port of 993. Other programs support STARTTLS on the default IMAP port, but SquirrelMail can't do that due to specific limitations of PHP SSL module and SquirrelMail IMAP implementation. If you use SSL, your IMAP-SSL server must listen on a different port. Or you can just enable 'Secure IMAP (TLS)' in your config if your IMAP server supports TLS. You can also use stunnel to connect SquirrelMail to an SSL enabled IMAP server as an alternative. However, SquirrelMail does support IMAP-SSL in combination with PHP 4.3.x or higher. SquirrelMail uses plain text logins by default. You can see this by telneting to your imap server and checking for LOGIN=DISABLED string in CAPABILITY description. This was done upstream to follow security recommendations by IETF (The Internet Engineering Task Force). Uw-imapd server disables plain text logins by default in 2002 or newer versions.
