Each webmail application requires an IMAP/POP server. But how does
squirrelmail does contact the server? I thought squirrelmail is written
in PHP, just like Horde/IMP which I am using. Horde/IMP needs the
php-imap support to establish the connection to the server. I believe
Alexandre had that in mind too.

I do not need uw-imapd but php-imap.
