You should not need a soft link to the ".../sqwebmail/html/en-us" 
folder if everything else is configured properly. The sqwebmaild 
process should *know* where that folder is and read the files for 
itself. -- In fact, assuming AOLserver follows symlinks, then having 
them linked into your docroot exposes the raw HTML templates which 
would look like crap to any users who found them. I would delete that 
link.

Well, presuming there is actually a space between "Map=POST /cgi-bin" 
and "/home/httpd....." (though it doesn't appear to be in your text 
above) as there is in the line above it for the Map=GET config... then 
I would expect that to be correct. -- However, I do not know ANYTHING 
about configuring the AOLserver system, so that's just a guess.

And such a configuration would (I believe) be dependent on you linking 
to sqwebmail as "/cgi-bin/sqwebmail" instead of merely "/sqwebmail" ... 
which I hope you are already aware of.

Nonetheless, even if that is all correct, something else is obviously 
wrong still... Because I get the executable downloaded instead of its 
output showing up in my browser -- meaning that the server is NOT 
running the cgi as would be desired.

I would suggest that you need to speak to someone with experience in 
setting up the AOLserver and find out if you are missing a directive, 
or improperly formatting the ones you already have, or anything else 
like that.
