Installing the Login Alias plugin
=================================

1) Start with untaring the file into the plugins directory.
   Here is an example using version 2.0 of the login_alias plugin.

  $ cd plugins
  $ tar -xzvf login_alias-2.0-1.2.1.tar.gz

2) Change into your SquirrelMail data directory and "touch" the
   login_alias preferences file.  Here is an example using 
   "/var/squirrelmail/data" as the location of your data directory:

  $ cd /var/squirrelmail/data
  $ touch login_alias.pref

3) Make this file readable and writable by the user your web server 
   runs as.  For example, assuming your web server runs as the user
   "apache", you should do this:

  $ chown apache:apache login_alias.pref
  $ chmod 600 login_alias.pref

4) Then go to your SquirrelMail config directory and run conf.pl.  
   Choose option 8 and move the plugin from the "Available Plugins"
   category to the "Installed Plugins" category.  Save and exit.

  $ cd /path/to/squirrelmail/config/
  $ ./conf.pl

5) Also, please verify that you have the "compatibility" plugin
   installed.

  $ tar xzvf login_alias-2.0-1.2.1.tar.gz
