Let me try to pinpoint the problem:
- You've installed MySQL, Postfix, Dovecot?
yes
- MySQL is used for virtual users/domains?
no; it never had anything to do with postfix the instructions don't state this as a requirement
- You've set up Postfix and Dovecot to work with the MySQL DB?
no the instructions don't state this as a requirement
- You've sent /locally/ (i.e., on the server) a test using mail or mailx
MTA is fine send/recv imap,submission,pop,smtp
to one of the users in the DB, you've checked that the mail actually arrives in the corresponding folder on the HDD, and that the logs are ok?
- You've checked /locally/ (again, on the server) that POP and IMAP
access to that same user work (with password auth)?
yes
If your answer is 'yes' to all questions, then your mail server is working fine /locally/. If not, of course you'll need to fix this first.
- You set up a test account using, eg, Thunderbird?
- You can access the mail box via POP and IMAP?
- You can send an email via SMTP?
Again, if your answer is 'yes', then you have a working mail server. If not, go back and fix this first.
If you still have problems with RC, then the problem is not your mail server, but your RC config. Enable the debug/log options in your config -- maybe that'll point you in the right direction.
is all this necessary ?

I've run into the same troubles setting up RC, so I understand how frustrating it can be, but I don't think that the RC installer is the culprit ...

Throwing in my bit of experience here...
So, you can't send emails, but Dovecot is working, right? Then, what is your *Postfix* config? Do you have any smtpd_restrictions enabled? Maybe you need to add localhost or 127.0.0.0/8 to mynetworks?
Matthias
my MTA is fine i can send/recv email without any issue RC can send tests so i dont think its an MTA issue
its either a dovecot or mysql db issue
ive reluctantly read some 'howtos' whereby people explicitly state adding sql info to the various dovecot confs
can somebody from RC confirm if this is necessary ?

Here you have the reason stated ^^.
Please check the 'default_host' setting in your Roundcube config and make sure the connection type (e.g. tls://), hostname and port are set to whatever dovecot is running at.
its exactly the same - localhost strange thing is it doesn't matter if its ssl:// or the local IP, ive tried them all, this is always logged
IMAP connect: NOT OK(Login failed for user from 1.2.3.4. Could not connect to ssl://localhost:993: Unknown reason)
something could be wrong with the installer script
when i go back and enable the installer, update config, and try logging into imap, this:
SMTP send: NOT OK(Invalid sender or recipient)
