Description John Florian 2013-01-30 00:22:41 UTC

Description of problem:
Existing configurations of SquirrelMail no longer work under Fedora 18 due to changes in Apache httpd authentication modules.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
squirrelmail-1.4.22-9.fc18.noarch
httpd-2.4.3-12.fc18.x86_64


How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install squirrelmail and establish a basic configuration.
2. Attempt to access https://yourserver/webmail
3. Notice the "403 Forbidden" error page.
  
Actual results:
Cannot reach the typical SM login page.

Expected results:
Simple installation and operation as before.

Additional info:
After reading http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/upgrading.html and http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/mod_authz_host.html, it seemed necessary for make the following configuration change to get the prior behaviour back:
