    I did the installation process from this tutorial:

    https://www.howtoforge.com/virtual-...-courier-mysql-and-squirrelmail-debian-wheezy
    Error from webmail:
    ERROR: Could not complete request. Query: SELECT "INBOX". Reason Given: Unable to open this mailbox.

    Also when I add the account to Thunderbird I get this error:

    /var/log/mail.log

    The mailbox gets created when the first email is sent to it, so you cant access it until then. Please see the tutorial, it contains instructions to send a email to the mailbox on the shell to create it.

    If you like to have a easier to maontain virtual user setup, then you should take a look at one of the perfect server guides with ispconfig 3.
