 I'm also using apache-2.0.55nb2 (from the 2005Q3 branch), but on a 1.6.2
 server.
 I'll try installing on a current system and test. Can you send me your simple
 php script to test ? Myabe the breackage depends on the way squirrelmail
 is configured, using a simpler script would help narrow down the issue.
