I use a Python script (attached) on a Sun Solaris server to authenticate
against an IMAP server. Here's the changes you need to make to squid.conf:

auth_param basic children 5
auth_param basic realm Squid proxy-caching web server
auth_param basic credentialsttl 2 hours
auth_param basic program /usr/local/bin/squidauth.py
