First off, mail.yourserver.com is your mail server, so you would have to change that to something else. Assuming you install squirrrelmail into a new ibay - say "smail", then from server-manager go to "Domains" and add new domain. Call it smail.yourserver.com and choose Squirrelmail content, not primary.

Finally, change your DNS and add an A host of smail.yourserver.com to point to your ip address. Everything should work if you do this properly, I just confirmed it on mine.

Good luck,
