If you're running everything on your local box, then your IMAP account 
credentials will be whatever linux user account's mail you want to 
access. Obviously you need to make sure that imapd is running, or 
Squirrelmail won't have anything to connect to.

You run the config/conf.pl script to configure your Squirrelmail 
installation. That sets stuff like what IMAP and SMTP servers to use, etc.

Once you've set that, _then_ you go to the squirrelmail webpage and put 
in the username/password.
