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.

net::server::multitype
Net::Server::MultiType(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation Net::Server::MultiType(3)
NAME
Net::Server::MultiType - Net::Server personality
SYNOPSIS
use base qw(Net::Server::MultiType);
sub process_request {
#...code...
}
my @types = qw(PreFork Fork Single);
Net::Server::MultiType->run(server_type => @types);
DESCRIPTION
Please read the pod on Net::Server first. This module is a personality, or extension, or sub class, of the Net::Server module.
This personality is intended to allow for easy use of multiple Net::Server personalities. Given a list of server types,
Net::Server::MultiType will require one at a time until it finds one that is installed on the system. It then adds that package to its
@ISA, thus inheriting the methods of that personality.
ARGUMENTS
In addition to the command line arguments of the Net::Server base class, Net::Server::MultiType contains one other configurable parameter.
Key Value Default
server_type 'server_type' 'Single'
server_type
May be called many times to build up an array or possible server_types. At execution, Net::Server::MultiType will find the first
available one and then inherit the methods of that personality
CONFIGURATION FILE
"Net::Server::MultiType" allows for the use of a configuration file to read in server parameters. The format of this conf file is simple
key value pairs. Comments and white space are ignored.
