Did you configure your mail domain, etc. in the roundcube config mail?
Because the error says : Failed to set sender 'xxx'

thanks for help

i replaced my '[email protected]'  by  'xxx' in the post, I'm using '%u' as smtp_user
I guess all is done is correct but something else is missing , a kind of gmail smtp specificity.
I saw many users have configured roundcube like that with gmail, some had the same problem, no solution, they used another smtp !

solved, ubuntu package is not the last version, it works with stable version
thanks
