This doesn't mean you haven't squirrelmail installed, just you haven't 
squirrelmail-1.4.3a-r2 installed:

man emerge
[...]
       --pretend (-p)
              Instead of actually performing the merge,  simply  display  
what
              *would*  have  been  installed if --pretend weren't used.  
Using
              --pretend is strongly recommended before installing an  
unfamil-
              iar package.  In the printout,

              N = new, (not yet installed)
              S = new, Slot installation (side-by-side versions)
              U = updating, (changing versions)
              D = downgrade, (Best version seems lower)
              R = replacing, (Remerging same version))
              F = fetch restricted, (Manual download)
              f = fetch restricted, (Already downloaded)
              B = blocked by an already installed package
[...]
           
Got the point?

Ciao
 Francesco
