roundcube/roundcubemailWhat is roundcubemail-docker?
Roundcube Webmail Docker provides official container images for running the Roundcube webmail client. It offers three variants (Apache, PHP-FPM, and PHP-FPM Alpine) with both root and non-root versions. The images support configuration via environment variables for IMAP/SMTP servers, database connections (MySQL, PostgreSQL, or SQLite), plugins, skins, and Docker Secrets for sensitive data. Persistent data directories can be mounted for the database, configuration, plugins, and temporary files. The project is maintained by the Roundcube organization and licensed under GPL-3.0-or-later.
