I do not know how to configure squirrelmail but I use horde/imp as webmail and this is configurable to enforce HTTPS sessions. Maybe your squirrelmail forces you too? > A little more info about my server. I have it's own domain and two > virtual domains.

Ok, so you will need 1 IP for the main server and the 3 namebased HTTP virtual hosts. Be sure you set the ServerName in the main section of the httpd.conf. Either include the configuration files for the virtual hosts or directly add their instructions to the httpd.conf. If you only want a HTTPS host for the main server you don't need an additional IP. You maybe only have to set a different DocumentRoot to the squirrelmail directory. > I've read a little that virtual domains that are non-ip (name based) won't > work with ssl.

I have a similar configuration running, one main host, a dozen virtual hosts and a few HTTPS virtual hosts with their own IP serving for virtual webmail hosting with horde/imp. Running fine. If you like, send me your httpd.conf and ssl.conf files and I will have a close look at them. > > > > Alexander > > > > Thanks for the continued help.
