Create a generic PKGMESSAGE, and use it where appropriate.

Make sure that bsd.port.pre.mk is included before bsd.squirrelmail.mk.

For ports with maintainers, I haven't switched you to the new
PKGMESSAGE, but I have corrected paths in pkg-message.in where
necessary. I also got a little over-zealous in cleaning redundant
definitions from the headers. Apologies in advance if this rubs
you the wrong way.

-# Common code for squirrelmail plugins.
+# To create a plugin, put the following at the bottom of your makefile:
+#
+# .include <bsd.port.pre.mk>
+# .include "${.CURDIR}/../squirrelmail/bsd.squirrelmail.mk"
+# .include <bsd.port.post.mk>
+#
+# Variables you can set:
+# USE_SM_COMPAT = creates a dependency on mail/squirrelmail-compatibility-plugin
+# USE_GENERIC_PKGMESSAGE = to use a default message about editing config.php
+# 	*****NOTE this clobbers FILESDIR, so you cannot use this if you have any files/patch-*
+# SQUIRREL_PLUGIN_NAME = defaults to PORTNAME
+# SQUIRREL_PLUGIN_CONFIG = the config file name (for the PKGMESSAGE)
+# _SMSRCDIR = WRKSRC=${WRKDIR}/${_SMSRCDIR}
+#
