i have a number of email accounts yahoos and googles and now this one on webdomain wpaep.org.uk i gone overboard i think creating email accounts over last 12 months but seemed to best way to seperate all the different projects and stuff i am involved with. I would like too be able too have them all in one place but do not really want too use a mail client on my laptop i do like the fact that webbased mail is a lot easier too deal with then having a slow email client trying to download everything each time i log in.

i am using ubuntu 10.04 as my main machine OS.

how do i cfg roundcube , it was just part of the webhosting package i am very new too all this web hosting and website stuff , i can cope a bit with php i understand programming was one many years in DOS AUTOCAD etc

Hi markcroft,

Roundcube Webmail is just a front-end webmail application. Hence as long as you understand that you are going to be connecting to each one of your providers to read e-mails through Roundcube Webmail you are good.

There are a couple things you can try:

1- You can use plugins such as accounts (Remote IMAP Accounts) to switch from one external account to another within Roundcube. (This is considering that your e-mail provider allows IMAP connections to their servers)

2- You can forward/fetch all your e-mails accounts to one specific account and use Roundcube  to check that one account which will gather all those e-mails sent to each external account.

3- Create Identities within Roundcube to send e-mails on behalf of each one of your accounts.
