The password is always unencrypted in this location.  If you are
referring to how you encrypt it when adding in MySQL, just use the
standard MySQL syntax for adding/updating passwords, nothing
different.

This is a MySQL question, not a SquirrelMail one.  You need to watch
your MySQL log when the login attempt occurs and see what the error
is.  Make sure the user/pwd also has permission to log into the
database on the designated host (localhost) in your example.
