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.

pygm2n
pygm2n(1) Python Gateway mail to news pygm2n(1)
NAME
pygm2n - Python Gateway mail to news
SYNOPSIS
pygm2n -n newsgroups [ -s newsserver ] [ -h ]
DESCRIPTION
IMPORTANT: this man page is to be continued. The Whole pyg gateway is in devel. state. try -h option for more detailed option.
pygm2n reads from stdin an email, sending it to newsgroups, a comma separated list without spaces of newsgroup names (at least one), rfc799
compliant.
If pygm2n reads from stdin a sigle line starting with /, it is considered an absolute path to a single-email mailbox, so pygm2n will open
and read it.
Note that now pyg can't read a real mailbox, with many emails. If you give it in input, pyg will post the whole mailbox as a single email.
EXAMPLES
There is some documetation in /urs/share/doc/pyg
I created mailgate user (moderator of local.moderated ng). Subscribe to a list with this user (or simply email one message to). Every
email posted to this user will send to newsgroups, in its .procmailrc I've put something like:
:0 bh * ^From *mailinglist-request@lists.debian.org | $HOME/pygm2n -n local.debian.mailinglist
