Re: [cobalt-users] Neomail and CGIWRAP

[Chad Levin <chadl@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Joshua,

I also tried to install NeoMail but was unable to do because my Raq3 didn¹t
have a particular module. Instead I installed Squirrelmail.

Installation instructions are at

http://www.uk2raq.com/raqfaq.shtml#q29

Hope this helps,

Chad
