I actually don't mean to speed up squirrelmail and PHP. The main |
14 |
function of that system is to run a website in perl, and I thought I |
15 |
might be bogging down apache2 a bit just by opening it up to PHP |
16 |
interpretation (-D PHP). Is that the case? It would also be nice not |
17 |
to be exposed to PHP exploits. It just seems kind of silly to |
18 |
maintain and run PHP just for webmail. |
