Hello,
Your post is too ambiguous, so the best answer, as I see it, would be as following. You should give us more details on the subject you're worried about, as SMTP server works enough good from the box, if it's possible to say so. To say other words default settings which you get with directadmin installations cover and satisfy the most needs, of course if you need something special, you should firstly decide what exactly you want and then tell us, so we could help you if you need our assistance.
So what you want? And what you already have?

You need to ask to your hosting provider.
Otherwise, if you have your own server and lets say you did set domain.com data should be:
host mail.domain.com
port 25 or 587
authentication if port 25 none if port 587 yes
username, email address you did create so lets say [email protected]
password, well, password you choosed on email creation.
encryption, none or tls, unless you got a valid ssl cert
Regards

Usually when you create a new POP/SMTP/IMAP account (email box) in Directadmin you see all necessary settings for your mail program.

I don't use squirrelmail and did not face such an issue. So in this particular case I have nothing to suggest you.
How about this phpmyadmin problem: http://www.directadmin.com/forum/showthread.php?t=44044&p=224503&highlight=#post224503 ?
What did you use on email management ?

Is really up to you, i use Mozilla Thunderbird client.

My choice is for roundcube and afterlogic.
But still I mostly use Windows Email program to access my email box via IMAP.

Roundcube can be installed using custombuild.

Hire a professional, as you're asking how to do each step, means you're not confident with ssh. And that's dangerous. #justsaying
