Description

RoundCube Webmail is a browser-based multilingual IMAP client with an application-like user interface. It provides full functionality you expect from an e-mail client, including MIME support, address book, folder manipulation, message searching and spell checking. For more information see http://www.roundcube.net/. Actually roundcube is only available with beta status, but it run very fast and stable.

Installation

Install from the SME Contribs repository issue the following command on the SME Server shell:

yum --enablerepo=smecontribs install smeserver-roundcube

Installation for roundcube webmail 0.9.4

The rpm is not in the smecontribs tree yet, you have to download manually in my web area and install them. Raise a bug or mail me for bugs and new features mailto:stephdl@de-labrusse.fr

This is just an update from the work of stephen noble

	Warning:
	You have to completely remove the original contribs of stephen Noble and its mysql database before to install this newer contribs, else you may have some troubles. See RoundCube#Uninstallation

wget http://mirror.de-labrusse.fr/Sme-Server/roundcube/roundcube-0.9.4-2.noarch.rpm
wget http://mirror.de-labrusse.fr/Sme-Server/roundcube/smeserver-roundcube-0.9-12.noarch.rpm
yum localinstall roundcube-0.9.4-2.noarch.rpm smeserver-roundcube-0.9-12.noarch.rpm
signal-event console-save

	Note:
	see bugzilla:7652 Special instructions are included in the rpm to allow the upload_tmp_dir in the httpd template as described here For httpd.conf

Uninstallation

To remove the package issue the following command on the SME Server shell:

rpm -e roundcube smeserver-roundcube

To remove mysql database and user, both are roundcube, see MySQL#Remove a database and MySQL#Remove a user. There is no need to reboot.

Usage

http://servername/roundcube and logon with your user account.

	Tip:
	This contrib is protected by a double authentification when you attempt to reach the roundcube contrib outside of your local network. You have to set a variable to "global" if you want to turn off this behaviour. See RoundCube#To_limit_access_to_roundcube

Options

You can fine tune access to roundcube with DB settings. For details have a look at Web Application RPM#New DB settings.

To limit access to roundcube

config setprop roundcube PublicAccess OPTION

OPTION is either of the following.

       none             => No access
       local            => Local network  (no password required)
       local-pw         => Local network  (password required)
       global           => Entire Internet(no password required)
       global-pw        => Entire Internet(password required)
       global-pw-remote => Entire Internet(password required outside local network)

	Note:
	the global option is already the default option to control access to this contribs

config setprop roundcube PublicAccess global

To enable your changes run these commands

expand-template /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
sv h /service/httpd-e-smith

To add a different URL

by example

http://yourserver.net/webmail 

or

http://yourserver.net/mail

	Warning:
	This URL of /webmail is used by the horde webmail, so you have to deactivated the webmail in the server-manager

	Note:
	this adds another url, it doesn't remove the default

config setprop roundcube URL webmail

or

config setprop roundcube URL mail

To enable your changes run these commands

expand-template /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
sv h /service/httpd-e-smith

• If you want to remove completely the new url

config delprop roundcube URL

then

expand-template /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
sv h /service/httpd-e-smith

Local Settings

The config file is now templated, so changes need to be made in a new fragment

• eg. /etc/e-smith/templates/opt/roundcube/config/main.inc.php/20local

check which setting you want to change with

cat /opt/roundcube/config/main.inc.php.dist

then add the new setting in the new fragment and expand, it will overrule the old

expand-template /opt/roundcube/config/main.inc.php

If you think your setting should be the SME default raise a bug
