Hello,

is it possible to have different profiles/identities for one IMAP account? I don't think so because I have googled a lot.
But what would be the easiest way to achieve this? Modify the virtusers or virtual_user_mapping plugin?
By the way squirrelmail has 2 plugins to do this. But it lacks for individual IMAP flags - I also need this.

TIA

BR

Roundcube has built in identity support under Settings -> Identities.

Thanks for the fast reply.

I want to store different settings. Is this possible? I don't think so.

I think you know better which settings could be changed?!

Lets speak about

a) settings which can be changed via web panel
b) settings which can be set only via config.php
c) settings of plugins.

Do you know more?

Thats a little bit poor information. As I have written I want to know how to change different settings.
Sender Identity settings can be changed I know that. This is about 1 % of settings available, am I wrong?
I mean all settings which are available in the settings web config and via settings config.php.
Furthermore added plugins will have settings too...

As I have googled a lot I didn't find the information yet.

I think we need to tweak roundcube or to create a plugin.

In this discussion I hope I get more input.

Please read my subject of the posting.

Do you have a solution? I don't think so.

So please don't post again, when you don't have one Skaero.

It sounds like you need separate Roundcube logins for each profile. I don't see any other way to allow every setting to be tracked.

If your IMAP server is Dovecot perhaps look at the shared folders.
