You need to have PHP store its session data in a database so that both
instances can access the same user sessions.  There should be plenty
of examples and howto documents on the web to help you.  Depending how
you set this up, you may or may not also need to make use of this
information from SquirrelMail's src/login.php:

/**
 * Allow administrators to define custom session handlers
 * for SquirrelMail without needing to change anything in
 * php.ini (application-level).
 *
 * In config_local.php, admin needs to put:
 *
 *     $custom_session_handlers = array(
 *         'my_open_handler',
 *         'my_close_handler',
 *         'my_read_handler',
 *         'my_write_handler',
 *         'my_destroy_handler',
 *         'my_gc_handler',
 *     );
 *     session_module_name('user');
 *     session_set_save_handler(
 *         $custom_session_handlers[0],
 *         $custom_session_handlers[1],
 *         $custom_session_handlers[2],
 *         $custom_session_handlers[3],
 *         $custom_session_handlers[4],
 *         $custom_session_handlers[5]
 *     );
