[RCU] Session timeout not working as expected

[James Yu Wang]

I believe it was installed in late 2015 or early 2016, but I agree, it's old. I just downloaded the latest source tar ball. Will upgrade it during our winter break.

what about get a recent roundcube and a clean setup?

[root at testserver:~]$ rpm -q roundcubemail roundcubemail-1.4.9-2.fc32.20201002.rh.noarch

that change was done years ago, just download the roundcube tarball:
