Using the tar.gz package and putting a link from squirrelmail-version to a directory possibly named webmail or squirrelmail makes it easy to switch versions just by changing the soft link. That way you can test new versions of squirrelmail by untaring the package, deleting the old link and linking the new source directory. jay
