How To Adjust the Session Time out in Squirrelmail (WebMail)

UPDATED: January 5, 2012


Question: I use Squirrelmail (Webmail) as my primary e-mail program. When I leave their computer for awhile and come back later, the session times out and I must log back in.

Answer:

  1. Log in to your Squirrelmail (Webmail) account
  2. Click "Options" in the top menu
  3. Click "Folder Preferences"
  4. Choose "30 seconds" for the "Auto Refresh Folders List" option.
  5. Click "Submit"
  6. Log out and log back in

This will only affect Squirrelmail settings for that particular e-mail user's account.
