RoundCube for SME 7.x

Maintainer

Dungog.net (Software)

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 and without some wishful extras, but it run very fast and stable.

Installation

Optionally install from the dungog repo, or download roundcube and smeserver-roundcube from any [smedev mirror]

The following command will configure the Dungog repository on SME Server. The dungog repository will no longer be updated. All the contribs from this repository have been moved to the smecontribs repository.

DungogMember contribs are still at http://www.dungog.net After adding it to the database we have to update the changes to the configuration file:

signal-event yum-modify

To install

yum enablerepo=dungog install roundcube smeserver-roundcube

For uninstall

yum remove roundcube smeserver-roundcube

For both you can ignore the yum-comments signal event post-upgrade and signal-event reboot.

Use

For using roundcube start your browser with the URL http://servername/roundcube and logon with your user account.

Options

  • To disable roundcube. (default is enabled)
config setprop roundcube status disabled 
  • 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)
  • To add a different URL eg. yourserver.net/cube

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

config setprop roundcube URL cube
  • To run roundcube from the root of a domain eg.

cube.yourserver.net or
domain2.org

config setprop roundcube domain cube OR
config setprop roundcube domain domain2.org

In /server-manager Hostnames and Addressess setup eg. cube as a hostname on one of you domains or
in Domains setup a new domain eg. domain2.org, roundcube will overrule the panel setting

To enable your changes run these commands

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

yum enablerepo=dungog install smeserver-eaccelerator

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
