I just set up a qmail mail server and installed squirrelmail as an html front end to it. I have everything installed and working and wanted to add the change_password plugin to it but it doesnt show up in the options page. I am at a loss why. Other plugin's show up when I add them but not change password. Anybody know why or had a similar problem?

Peace

Go to your squirrelmail 's config directory
for example
[root@ns1 config]# ./conf.pl enter
you will get following screen

Does the SquirrelMail "change_password" plugin support Qmail and/or Vpopmail?

Peace..

Just installed the change_password plugin today. It works fine with qmail/vpopmail. There are different versions depending on what authentication you use. As for the original question, all you should need to do is download it into path/to/squirrelmail/plugins and untar it. Then run the conf.pl script like stated above.

good luck,
