SquirrelMail is an open-source webmail application written in PHP. It provides a web-based interface for accessing email via the IMAP protocol and sends messages through SMTP. The project also includes a separate IMAP proxy server written in C. Both components are released under the GNU General Public License version 2 or later.

The last numbered stable release was version 1.4.22 in July 2011. Since then, the project has continued through SVN snapshots; the current stable branch (1.4.23-svn) is tested with PHP up to version 8.1. SquirrelMail was once widely deployed and included in the repositories of major Linux distributions, but its use has declined since the mid-2010s as hosting providers replaced it with Roundcube and other alternatives.
