Could you detail your setup a little better than some vague bits of
information?  SquirrelMail is an IMAP client, so it is talking to your
IMAP server, whatever format that might use, squirrelmail doesn't care...
it just talks to it.  You've not given any details about your imap setup
at all.  As an additional note, this isn't really a SquirrelMail question=
,
but an imap server question on how to migrate your data from poppawid.  A
quick google suggests that pooppawid is a webmail application itself,
which means you'll probably need to work out what it talks to to find out
the format you are trying to convert from.
