Survey about Roundcube deployments

[Thomas Bruederli]

Hi there

I'd like to get some facts and figures about how and where you people use
Roundcube and what number of users access their mails via Roundcube. We
already have a list of hosters who offer
http://trac.roundcube.net/wiki/RoundCube but this might not be complete and
it lacks any numbers.

We often get requests about this topic and I'd like to give some proven
answers about the power of Roundcube when used in large-scale environments.

So please post some details about how you use Roundcube including:

- Number of users (max)
- Average of concurrent users
- Number of hosts serving Roundcube
- Database backend software
- IMAP backend software
- Other webmail software which is offered as alternative

Please also note if you would be willing to share your experience about the
integration of Roundcube in your environment with people who ask us for help.

Thanks a lot!

Thomas

Hi Thomas

I am working for the following two Swiss web hosting companies:
Onlime Webhosting, http://www.onlime.ch
Datenpark, http://www.datenpark.ch

At Onlime Webhosting, we are providing Roundcube already since  
February 2007 to our customers. At Datenpark, we just started in  
October 2009 as a replacement for Horde/IMP. The switch to Roundcube  
should be done by the end of the year. ... so far without any  
problems! Congrats to your great product!
I even wrote a import plugin for Horde/IMP user data such as Turba  
address book entries & IMP identity. I can post the plugin if anybody  
is interested.

RC usage statistics:

Onlime Webhosting (low volume)
------------------------------
number of users: 200
average of concurrent users: 5
number of hosts serving RC: 1 (1 production + 1 testing instance)
database backend software: MySQL 5.0.51 (Debian Lenny)
IMAP backend software: Cyrus IMAPd 2.2.13 (Debian Lenny)
Other webmail software which is offered as alternative: none

Datenpark (high volume)
-----------------------
number of users: 3500
average of concurrent users: 30
number of hosts serving RC: 1 (1 production + 1 testing instance)
database backend software: MySQL 5.0.51 (Debian Lenny)
IMAP backend software: Cyrus IMAPd 2.2.13 (self-compiled/patched),  
running on different server
Other webmail software which is offered as alternative: Horde/IMP  
(replaced by RC by the end of the year)

And yep, I'm ready to share my experiences with others. Since the  
integration of the 0.3 plugin architecture I am really enthusiastic  
about this great piece of software!!!
Clapping my hands! RC definitely is the Swiss army knife webmail system.

Best Regards
Philip Iezzi


P.S. The only thing my customers and I am really missing is: contact  
groups. But hey, we can wait, don't hurry! Just keep up the good work.

French hosting company http://www.ovh.com/ provides Roundcube as a
webmail.

I have no idea about the figures though.

I subscribe to the RCU list and try to help there when the topic is  
something I have experience with. I will and have shared  
configurations and experience there.

I didn't see this message posted to the RCU list, is that on purpose ?

Hi there,

we are about to move over to RoundCube 0.3 (away from IMP/Horde) as a  
webmail client for our students (www.han.nl). Here are some figures:

Number of users (max): around 30.000 students
Average of concurrent users: we've had peak usages of 600 simultaneous  
logins
Number of hosts serving RC: we currently have 1 active IMP server (and  
1 hot standby). With RC we'll use 2 active servers (load balancer)
Database backend: MySQL (2 master master replicas)
IMAP backend: Cyrus IMAP (single server with warm standby)
As said, currently we use IMP for our students, but at the start of  
next year we're moving to RC (working on some plugins first).

As a reaction on Plilip Lezzi's comment about the import plugin for  
IMP/Horde where someone can import their Turba addressbook and IMP  
identities into RC, I'm very interested!

And of course: many thanks to all who have been involved with a great  
product (and not only from the user perspective!)

Br,

Dennis Ortsen

Hello,

We've been offering Roundcube to everyone at the University of Michigan
for a bit over a year.

Number of users (max): 70,013
        This is the number of preference sets in the database.  We have
more IMAP accounts, but they have not yet chosen to visit our Roundcube
install.

Average of concurrent users: 500 to 2000
         The number is highly variable based on time of day and our
academic calendar.
         A snapshot from this morning shows:
            Active in the last hour: 2715
            Active in the last 5 minutes: 1879
            Active in the last minute: 1096
            (we've got a plugin which gives stats like these that we're
still preparing to share)

Number of hosts serving Roundcube: 19
      We are using round-robin DNS.  These machines are separate from
our IMAP servers and serve Horde/IMP also.

Database backend software: MySQL 5

IMAP backend software:  Cyrus and ImapProxy
      We use a proxy with unlimited credentials to allow authentication
to be performed by CoSign (http://weblogin.org/)

Other webmail software which is offered as alternative:
       We continue to run Horde/IMP mail as we have for many years.  Our
Horde/IMP install has more regular users than our Roundcube.  We
differentiate our offerings by saying Roundcube is our modern,
easy-to-use webmail and Horde/IMP is our feature-rich webmail.  There
are no plans to stop offering IMP.

Some interesting, un-shared modifications have been:
    * All folder searching and a new search interface
    * A checkbox column
    * Horde Addressbook read/write
    * Non-scrolling column headers
    * A new skin (still working to make it 3.1 compatible)
    * Forwarding full headers
    * Forced client refresh on upgrade
    * CoSign authentication

We're working on sharing these changes and more.  We've had between 2
and 5 developers working on RC part time for the last year.

We would be happy to share more about our experiences with Roundcube if
it would be helpful to anyone.  If you couldn't tell from this message,
I could go on for hours :)

Thanks to everyone making Roundcube for all your hard work!

Regards,
Ziba

Hi all,

At the San Pablo CEU University (Spain), we move to roundcube 0.3 in september 09, before we
have and old squirrelmail.

Number of users: 15.000+

The server architecture is based on a 2 frontend active-pasive apache2 with MySQL 5 replication
master-slave and 2 backend, active-pasive with postfix (2.3.3) and dovecot (1.2.6) authenticated
to a Microsoft AD.

Our students are very happy with the change and its stability. Personally i am really enthusiastic
with the plugin architecture and hope to see in time, some calendar and task plugins.

The plugins the we use are contextmenu and serverinfo, and testing more in the test enviroment.

Thanks to all people making Roundcube!

Ok, I made my superduperbasic RC plugins available to public:
https://trac.onlime.ch/public/browser/roundcube-plugins

My onlime_imp_usercopy plugin is based on Thomas Bruederli's  
squirrelmail_usercopy plugin. It only works for IMP installations with  
single identities (at Datenpark, we had a 1:1 relationship of email  
address/account, so there was no need to provide multiple identities).  
But it could be easily extended.

https://trac.onlime.ch/public/browser/roundcube-plugins/onlime_imp_usercopy
README: https://svn.onlime.ch/public/roundcube-plugins/onlime_imp_usercopy/README

Grab it directly from our Subversion repository (anonymous login):

# svn co https://svn.onlime.ch/public/roundcube-plugins/onlime_imp_usercopy

It has been tested on RC v0.3-stable and v0.3.1

Have a nice weekend
Best regards,
Philip

Hi Zilba,

We're working on rolling out Roundcube to our student body here at the
UO. It's still in beta, and we're looking at ways to collect utilization
statistics like the ones you provided below. Would it be difficult for
you to share the plugin you developed to provide these?

Just for the record, the product we're migrating away from is called
Alphamail. It's open source, and had a SourceForge project page that has
been taken down due to inactivity. It was written by a PhD student from
our Computer Science department as his thesis project, and development
ceased when he got his diploma. It's been stable enough, but the
interface is somewhat clunky a the real focus of his work was on a
multithreaded caching IMAP proxy midlayer that the web interface talked
to via a proprietary protocol.

Thanks,

-Brad

Would you guys consider re-opensourcing the IMAP proxy middle layer?
It sounds pretty interesting.

I guess the sourceforge page is still out there. I wasn't able to pull
it up earlier, I had assumed that it had been taken down. The page is
here:

http://alphamail.sourceforge.net/index.html#status

As you can see, it hasn't been worked on at all for about three years
now. We're running up-imapproxy behind roundcube, and it seems to be
doing just as well, although I don't have any hard statistics to back
that up. The AJAX design of Roundcube seems to be more lightweight than
other models that require a full page redraw and re-enumeration of
messages every time the page is updated.

Sorry for the long delay.  I kept telling myself I'd polish it up, test
it on a the newest RC, write some docs.  But I didn't.  Rather than
delay more, I'll just link you my plugins as is: undocumented, possibly
not working with the latest RC.  Sorry.  I hope it's useful.  I'll keep
it at this url for a month or so:

http://umich.edu/~ziba/adminplugins.tgz

It's three plugins: one supplies hooks for the other two.

Someday I'd like to polish it up and host it officially with other
plugins.  (Unless someone else wants to!)

Cheers,
Ziba

Hello Ziba,

I made some adjustments to get it working for me. It looks like you have
missed to adjust the template includes to use $vars array.
In addition I added a check that $rcmail_config['skin_include_php'] is TRUE.

If it is ok for you I will bundle your plugins with my MyRoundcube plugin
collection an host them on http://myroundcube.googlecode.com.

Well, your code is a good starting point for an admin interface. Let's start
to work on it together.

Regards,
R.

It worked out of the box on my development host running SVN trunk.
Definitely a very good starting place for an admin panel, or at least some
sort of status/debugging interface.

The log file interface is nice, but using that on my production hosts
wouldn't work so well - I have multiple systems behind a load-balancer. Log
aggregation of some sort would be a requirement. Anyone feel like a database
logging plugin? Some sort of a read_log API hook might be nice too, to round
out both sides of the equation.
