Default SquirrelMail + Writable Directories

My question is simple - I want to install Squirrelmail on my webserver,
but I can't chmod or chown the data directory. Is there any way to stop
Squirrelmail from trying to write to the directory without limiting
functionality too much, or is there a way to allow it to write without
using chmod, chgrp or chown?

I can't SSH into the box, only set up cron jobs. :S Can anyone help!?

Most ftp programs allow you to chmod. If using windows, check out wsftp
www.ipswitch.com.

I don't think there is another way to change directory/file privileges
other than chmod.
