Login to Roundcube ONLY with IMAP user and not with user@domail.tld

Help! (Home for newbies)

Hi,
I installed Roundcube on my server manually.

All Virtual Server can be accessed via domain.tld / webmail

The problem is the login. is allowed to login only through “IMAP / POP3 / FTP login” (eg user.domaintld) and not with the classic user@domail.tld.

Go already enabled “auto_create_user” to True.

How to fix?

Howdy,

Well, if you’re using the user.domain user format – that’s the user’s username, and is what RoundCube (and Dovecot) would require.

If you’re just getting started with the setup of your Virtualmin server, you could always change the username format being used for email users.

To do that, you can go into System Settings -> Server Templates -> Default -> Mail for Domain, and in there you can change “Format for usernames that include domain” to “user@domain”.

There’s no easy way to change existing users though, that will only change new users.
