Expect? No. Unless you keep all the old and insecure packages and work
around possible package conflicts.

Besides: Squirrelmail is more or less dead. There is one lone sole
comitting to the code base and trying to keep it updated but I would not
trust any security on this.

My advise: Scrap Squirrelmail and migrate to Roundcube.
