No new Squirrelmail plugins installed recently, but I did enable some of the
default ones and add some a while ago. Mail works fine with Thunderbird on
my local network. Yum patched dovecot from 1.0 to 1.0.1 but I don't know if
that caused the problem.

Squirrelmail plugins are:
abook_take               fortune         admin_add
index.php
sent_subfolders
info             spam_buttons administrator            listcommands
spamcop
bug_report               mail_fetch       squirrelspell
calendar                 message_details  translate
delete_move_next         newmail          vlogin filters
pupdate

Don't see what suddenly changed to make it start appending a domain name

Thanks

Rik
