Config for httpS://mail.yourdomain.net using Apache 2.* with Fedora Core 3 and SquirrelMail 1.4.4 or SquirrelMail 1.5.*

(I couldn't properly add code here in the wiki)

Below added by Mike

If you don't care that that every web page on your server is forced to https, you can

copy and paste the following into your httpd.conf file (works on Apache 2.* with FC4):

<code>

RewriteEngine? On

RewriteCond? %{SERVER_PORT} !^443$

RewriteRule? ^/(.*) https://%{SERVER_NAME}/$1 [L,R]

</code>

Remove the question mark that shows up in this display. Everything else is fine.

This is really helpful for those sites that plan to only have SquirrelMail running

on that server.

Hope this helps, -Mike

This is Fedora Core 4 specific, but here's what I did.

# Get rid of /etc/httpd/conf.d/squirrelmail.conf - it wants to have SquirrelMail run under the non-SSL-side of Apache.

# Edit ssl.conf to create a DocumentRoot path. I've used /var/www/secure. Create that directory first.

# Create a symbolic link in the new secure content directory to point to SquirrelMail. Run: ln -s /usr/share/squirrelmail /var/www/secure/mail.

Good luck.

For IIS if you have SSL set up and your certificate installed you can force SquirrelMail to use SSL by:

1. In IIS Manager select the SquirrelMail directory and edit it's properties.

2. On the Directory Security Tab click the Secure communications Edit button.

3. Check the "Require Secure Communications" box.
