I get the following error for all e-mail boxes when trying to log in Squirrel Mail:

Error opening ../data/default_pref
Could not create initial preference file!
/var/spool/squirrelmail/pref/ should be writable by user httpd
Please contact your system administrator and report this error.

Default Error using SquirrelMail again

I get the same error:
Quote:
Error opening ../config/default_pref
Could not create initial preference file!
/var/lib/squirrelmail/data/ should be writable by user myusername
All of my users and domains have enabled php as apache module.

What can I do?
