I don't understand what you mean, RoundCube don't back up emails, the folder with the email would depend on what mail server you are using.

Most of the linux based mail servers store the INBOX by default in /var/mail/ and the name of the box is the login name.

The only way I can think of to backup anyone's email, without server access, is to use a local email client, thunderbird, and download your email to your computer.....
