Matthew,

Nope, there's no archive enabled.  It's a fairly minimal setup. 
However, I just figured it out.  Users log in to the portal via 
username/password but when I tried logging into webmail direclty, I 
could log in.  After checking the source on the webportal page, I 
relaized the link passes $username at domain.com/password to squirrelmail 
login.
