1. Backup your config files: config.inc.php and defaults.inc.php from the folder: /usr/share/psa-roundcube/config

2:
cd /tmp/
Mkdir roundcoube
cd roundcube/
wget https://github.com/roundcube/roundc...ad/1.6-rc/roundcubemail-1.6.0-complete.tar.gz
tar xvf roundcubemail-1.6.0-complete.tar.gz
rm roundcubemail-1.6.0-complete.tar.gz
cd roundcubemail-1.6.0
bin/installto.sh /usr/share/psa-roundcube

3: after the installation is done, copy your backup of config.inc.php and defaults.inc.php back to
/usr/share/psa-roundcube/config

4: enjoy Roundcube 1.6
Bonus: Edit the config.inc.php and activate some plugins which are already in the installation and get much more functionality
mine as example has these plugins:
$config['plugins'] = ['filesystem_attachments', 'jqueryui', 'managesieve','markasjunk','password','zipdownload'];

I use Rspamd instead of Spamassasin and my RSPAMD is learning SPAM and HAM with the help of Roundcube. Each Time I manually I mark a Mail as Spam which went through the Spam filter. This functionality with much worse Spamassassin you have to buy for Plesk or you config this by yourself.

Thanks!

There is a special section on this forum for sharing these kinds of instructions: Resources
Could you please add it there as well?

Please note that we have a policy only to support LTS versions. The released version 1.6 is not yet an LTS version, unlike version 1.5.
Version 1.5 will be supported in Plesk 18.0.46 for all operating systems except CentOS7/RHEL7/CloudLinux7 and Ubuntu18.
As soon as version 1.6 becomes LTS, we will start supporting it.

And until Plesk 18.0.46 comes out, Roundcube 1.5.0 is already available in Plesk Premium Email, even in the Free edition.

 

[herrMartin]

Ok, fair to go with LTS versions, but I hope with 1.5 you mean the 1.5.3 LTS.
But why is RC 1.5. in Plesk Premium Email available and not in the default Plesk install.
I cannot image any reason for it.
BTW. are there plans to ditch spamassassin for a more modern, less resource hogging, better working rspamd?

We have a corresponding feature request: Rspamd support
But I have no ETA when it will be implemented.

Is Plesk following cPanel and deprecating CentOS 7 and CloudLinux7?

No. We will follow our official lifecycle policy Plesk Lifecycle Policy and continue support until 2024. We have too many customers on these operating systems.

Good to know! So it's just Rouncube 1.5 that's not available for these OSes? Is there any particular reason for this?

If I'm not mistaken, something related to MySQL server incompatibilities for different OSes.

Thanks for the info on how to update @herrMartin .

The installto.sh script isn't a shell script though, so the correct last command of step 2 is:

/opt/plesk/php/8.0/bin/php bin/installto.sh /usr/share/psa-roundcube

Since today Roundcube 1.6 is available in Plesk.
Thank you

 

[herrMartin]

wow, nice

What happened to your policy? I do not see an 1.6 LTS version.

 

[herrMartin]

at this point I'm just applaud to them and hope the autodiscover feature is next to get fixed… which is a total pain because Thunderbird, Apple , and Microsoft are all incompatible to each others XML

where did the skins disappear after Plesk 18.0.47 update???

my users are freaking out

 

[_sashok]

Does anyone know the reason why it was removed?

[_sashok]

The solution is simple:
