Are you using Mac OS X Server? Or running the server on a desktop flavor? What version?
Server uses the Server Admin application to add users (<10.5... Users preference pane in 10.6, Snow Leopard).
This page summarizes how to add a Mac OS X user via Terminal, although I have NO idea if it will interface into your mail system... However, Squirrelmail uses the system's IMAP programs to display information, it doesn't generally administer the mail system.

For a long time, when I type man anything on my Mac, both the manpage header fonts and the background was black, so I had to use my mouse to highlight the manpage output to read it. It was really annoying.
The problem was the same both locally or using the terminal and going ssh somewhere.

Jifty::Plugin::User::Mixin::Model::User(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Jifty::Plugin::User::Mixin::Model::User(3pm)
NAME
Jifty::Plugin::User::Mixin::Model::User - user model base mixin
SYNOPSIS
package MyApp::Model::User;
use Jifty::DBI::Schema;
use MyApp::Record schema {
# column definitions
};
# Import columns: name, email and email_confirmed
use Jifty::Plugin::User::Mixin::Model::User;
DESCRIPTION
This mixin may be added to a model to give your user accounts a name and an email address. This module may be used as the basic building
block for building account models in your application. It can be combined with mixins from an authentication plugin to create an object
suitable for a given authentication mechanism.
SCHEMA
This mixin model adds the following columns to the model.
name
This is the username/nickname for the user of the account.
email
This is the email address of the account. It is intended as a bare minimum confirmation of identity and for communication of password
resets and other account information.
email_confirmed
This is a flag indicating whether the user has confirmed ownership of the given email address.
METHODS
set_email ADDRESS
Whenever a user's email is set to a new value, we need to make sure they reconfirm it.
validate_email
Makes sure that the email address looks like an email address and is not taken.
