Hello,
I've installed Plesk on a server with Debian 12 following these instructions ;

I've found that Roundcube was installed by default instead of Horde.

Searching to know more about the different webmails I've found this page ;

Webmail Software

You can install a number of webmail software packages on your Plesk server and make them available to users. You can also redirect users to an external webmail service.

On it, it's mentioned that "Plesk backups do not include backups of the Roundcube database.". Is it still accurate ? If it is, why installing by default Roundcube instead of Horde ?

Thank you

As far as I remember, Horde had security issues repeatedly and didn't fix them for months in many cases, so Plesk decided to not install it by default any longer.

The Roundcube database is not backed up. What you could do is to run a cron an dump it to a web directory, then backup that website directory just as others, so that you have a daily Roundcube database backup, too.
