Really help me, my server is :
Thanks in advance ...

Well, I would suggest detailing your changes and configuration in more depth, without that we really can't tell you anything.

Without having any clue as to what you did or did not try, I would suggest the following: http://squirrelmail.org/docs/admin/admin.html#toc5.7. It is from the Squirrelmail documentation page and discusses the downsides of using a database backend, which includes some squirrelmail functions not working with it, as well as providing a how to do this if you still want to proceed.

thanks a lot, but please told me what files you want to see

cool, thanks i think this article was awesome, but there is something
but there are some errors like that:

===================
Error initializing addressbook database. [Personal address book] Database error: connect failed Error initializing global addressbook. [Global address book] Database error: connect failed
===================

and the other error is :

===================
No personal address book is defined. Contact administrator.
===================
Thanks in advance ...

This is somewhat of a guess based upon my own experience with PhP / MySQL applications, but you probably have a configuration error in supplying the user name and password for your database. If you are trying to connect to a database that is on a different computer than the mail application, this will be possible but more difficult. When users try to connect to the database, it receives the user plus the domain information and both need to match in the users table. By the way, the user is created with the 'grant privileges' command. The No address book defined error could be a result of the failure to connect to the database.
