Had Squirrelmail installed but when I removed it I just get /webmail "Forbidden"!
Hello,
I installed Squirrelmail with the command "yum install Squirrelmail", later I removed it with the command "yum remove Squirrelmail". Now there seams to be some virtual directory or something at mydomain.com/webmail that is pointing to the old Squirrelmail directory and I can't figure out how to remove it (I need to be able to use that directory name for a normal directory named webmail in the document root). Any ideas?

If you're the admin of the server in question, can't you simply remove the "webmail" directory that was created as part of the SquirrelMail installation? You should also check your webserver config file to make sure there aren't any aliases defined referring to "webmail" that might be causing you grief.

I would look in the DocumentRoot directory of "mydomain.com" and see if a "webmail" directory exists and if it does simply delete it.

Peace...
