Regarding the "skins" that are out there... No, I don't think there 
have been many others actually submitted to the community. I believe 
several other people offered their changes at one time or another over 
the last year or so. But if any others actually showed up, I can't 
remember them. -- Though if you look back far enough in the archives 
(and search for just the right thing?) you might find 2-3 others that I 
vaguely remember looking over about a year ago. They were 
demonstrations of site customizations, but the maintainers of the sites 
did not offer up any sort of skin, as I recall. Just a chance to see 
what they'd done to their installation.

As for the "landing" page... I _believe_ that what you want is in the 
file sqwebmail.c (~ line 2984) if I read the code properly. (Admittedly 
though, I only skimmed through code for a minute... just using my 
faulty memory of what's what to merely guess the right area, was how I 
found that line.) You'd have to ask Sam, or try changing it and 
compiling, to know if that's right for sure.

In case the line is in a different place between my current copy of the 
source and the one you're working from... the context is this:

				sqpcp_login(ubuf, p);
				maildir_acl_reset(".");

				http_redirect_argss("&form=folders", "", "");
				/* output_form("folders.html"); */
				free(ubuf);
				return(0);

The bit you want to change (if this is indeed the sought after line, 
that is) would be the "&form=folders" part. Change it to read 
"&form=folder&folder=INBOX" (note the removal of the "s" from 
"&form=folders"!) ... or at least to something like that, which I 
believe should then do what you want.

Sam, you want to check me on this though?? -- Is that the correct 
place? And that is all he needs to change, right? -- Thanks.
