Agreed, this is a Good Thing To Do. :)

SquirrelMail can force this all by itself. Run the config script, called 
"/var/www/squirrelmail/config/conf.pl", and choose option 8, "Plugins".

Look for the "secure_login" plugin, under "Available plugins". Enter the 
number beside this entry at the prompt; you'll see it jump up into the 
"Imstalled Plugins" list (and have a new number). Enter "S", to save the 
new configuration.

Now, whenever you attempt to connect to it with plain HTTP, it will force 
a redirect to the HTTPS equivalent of the same address. Very handy. ;)
