install RoundCube as the default webmail client???

[cappiels]

Hi there,

Please forgive my newbieness... I am quite new to cPanel. I just signed up for Linux VPS at LiquidWeb. I am interested in installing RoundCube so that it is the default webmail client-- or at least so that folks can go to a direct link to it. Can anyone tell me:

1. if that's possible and how to do it
2. what to watch out for, things to think about
3. whether there are better webmail clients out there

I noticed in the cPanel forums that RoundCube is not installed by default because it is a bit of a resource hog, but in my situation it will not get very heavy use so I'm willing to expend some processor power to deliver a better webmail experience to my users.

You might cleck your Feature Manager in WHM to make sure its enabled.

Haven't heard about the resource hog thing, got a link to that thread?

You'd need to test the three options for webmail to decide which you like best and go with it. Squirrel, Horde & Round Cube are your choices.

As of cPanel 11.23, RoundCube is a standard part of the install. As Infopro suggested, you need to ensure it is enabled. Check Tweak Settings to verify that.

Older versions of RoundCube were quite resource intensive, which is why we didn't offer it before.

I can't find it in my tweak settings
I'm running
WHM 11.15.0 cPanel 11.18.3-C21703
CENTOS Enterprise 4.6 i686 on standard - WHM X v3.1

Is there anything I can do to make it appear?

Yes, update your cPanel. Note the version in your own quote mentioned by cpanelkenneth.
