Plugins/config needed to mimic cPanel Roundcube

I'm trying to set up Roundcube on a different server to mimic the configuration that I see in Roundcube on a cPanel server.

Please would someone tell me what plugins I need, or what configuration I need to make to see the following in Settings:
  • Filters
  • Out of Office
  • Forwarding
I see thse in my Roundcube on a cPanel server, but not in the version I have installed outside of cPanel.
I was also missing CardDAV, but I have found that by installing the roundcube/carddav plugin.

This is using Roundcube 1.6.12 on a server running PHP 8.4.

There are so many plugins that it is a bit overwhelming for someone coming to them anew !!

Replying to my own post ...

I've found "Filters" by enabling managesieve (which was in the plugins directory but not enabled in config.inc.php).

Still looking for the other two.

If you click on "About" (bottom of the left hand sidebar) in the cPanel install of Roundcube it shows you what plugins are installed.

I'm not aware of cPanel having plugins for out of office or forwarding I think they just direct you to cPanel to make those changes.

Thank you.

Looking at "About" on the cPanel Roundcube (stupidly, I'd not done that before, though I had looked carefully at it on my own installation), I see that there are a nuber of plugins labelled "cPanel License (Proprietary)".

That (and your second sentence) is probably why I can't find plugins for "Out of Office" and "Forwarding" - it is probably time to give up on searching for those.

They are part of the managesieve plugin, but need to be enabled in config.

Indeed they are: $config['managesieve_vacation'] and $config['managesieve_forward']

Many, many thanks.

Apologies for hijacking the post, we are similarly migrating from cpanel's Roundcube to one hosted on our own server. Still unable to find several settings:

1. Preferences > Virus Protection
2. Preferences > Spam Settings
3. Preferences > Blacklisted addresses
4. Preferences > Whitelisted addresses

Are these all from a third party plugin? Have had a look at the installed plugins, no clue from there where these might have come from.

I don't see any of those in my cPanel install of Roundcube so I think those maybe custom to your cPanel install. If you have control of the server then you could look at the installed files to see what they are but otherwise I'd have to guess that there something custom.
