SquirrelMail 1.4.13 HTTP 404 issue

[Red Squirrel]

If you are using HTTPS with SquirrelMail you may get 404 errors after sending an email, purging a trash folder or doing other actions.

This is due to a bug or missconsideration in functions/strings.php function get_location()

The easiest way to solve this issue is to replace the contents of that function with something like:


return "https://webmail.example.com/src/"


Or whatever reflects the location of the install. I was unable to find a solution on google since all the forums I landed on had some troll saying to search google, so thought I would post the solution here in case someone does a search and finds this.
