While testing Roundcube, I've noticed that I can't be logged in with the same IMAP credentials on two different computers accessing the same installation of Roundcube.
Clarification:
Computer 1 is logged into "http://www.website.com/roundcube/" successfully. If I open a different browser and access the same URL from the same computer, I can login fine.
Computer 2 tries to login to "http://www.website.com/roundcube/" and gets the following error in the error log:
[14-May-2012 17:07:15 -0500]: IMAP Error: Login failed for LOGININFO@com from IPADDRESS. AUTHENTICATE PLAIN: Authentication failed. in ****/roundcube/program/include/rcube_imap.php on line 205 (POST ****/roundcube/?_task=login&_action=login)
If I log out of Computer 1 and wait a little bit, I can login from Computer 2 without an error.
Is this behavior standard, or if my installation screwed up?

This is most likely some limit on the IMAP server, which limits concurent logins from different IPs.

i would call this IMAP server as broken by design especially these days it is a normal behavior having a local mail-client and a smartphone both using the same account

I agree, this has to be an IMAP config issue. I login to my RC simultaneously from multiple machines on a daily basis, and have for the 2+ years we've been using RC.

So wait, it's a problem with my IMAP server or with the IMAP config in Roundcube?
How should I ask for help with this issue from my hosting company? Same question as I'm asking here?

With the IMAP server. It must be restricting simultaneous logins.
