Hi Buddies: I have this problem. When some user send emails from the webmail, the send mail is stored in the webmail. But not in the send of the client mail that the user uses for download mail via pop or imap. This is not a problem, it's understandable by how work pop, imap and the webmail. But I need to have consistence between the mails sent via the webmail and the mail client. First of all I think in a php script, in the webmail page, to send the sender the email he has sent. How you got another solution? thanks, Luciano.
Hi, I think it's a good idea, the only thing is that the copy of the sent mail will arrive in the inbox instead of the sent folder, maybe there is a way to put it in the right folder.

This is the way it already works. When you send a mail via RoundCube, its get stored in your Sent folder, and if you access your mail via a desktop client (thunderbird and the likes), the mails sent via RoundCube do show up in the outbox folder of the (desktop) mail client.
If this is not the way how RoundCube works for you then there might be some configurational problem with your RoundCube webmail. One of the possibilities is that you are using PHP Mail function to send the mail instead of the SMTP server. Another (and more probable) possibility is that your mail server recognises your Sent Folder by the name Outbox. In RC config folder, the Sent folder is defined as Sent. So there is a configuration mismatch between RoundCube and your Mail Server. Hence RoundCube creates the Sent folder and saves the mails in that folder. But your desktop mail client recognises Outbox as your Sent folder and fetches mails from that. Since the mails sent via RC are stored in the Sent folder, which is not subscribed, it does not show in the Outbox folder of your mail client.
I hope this clears it up for you. By changing the default Sent folder in RC config file, you might get it to work the way its supposed to. If you are not able to correct the problem this way, it might help if you are able to provide us with details of your mail server and RC implementation.

You can always configure their mail clients to use IMAP instead of pop. It will make their mail clients work just like roundcube and since they would'nt be downloading messages to their computers you can backup their mail. Off course this is only used in a few cases. Just wanted to share this to you.

Yes, this will also subscribe all your folders. I myself use IMAP since I like leaving my messages on the mail server if I need to access them on the go. Using POP transfers the messages from the mail server to your computer and thus the messages get deleted from the server.

Yes, I was thinking in filters in the mail client. ;)
OK Eden and Nipun: The problem is not the configuration! I know very good how the smtp, and pop are working! the problem is to try to maintain consistence in the sent mails from the roundcube and the client (Thunderbird, Eudora, etc). :D but I believe I'm going to write a php script to send the sent mails from roundcube to the users that want to maintain the consistence, and then apply a filter in the mail client, to redirect the new mail to sent folder :D Thanks to all! I will work hard in the Spanish location problem I have. May be the character encoding of the mysql databases.

A similar feature is found in many mail clients - it usually just BCC's the sender address (and doesn't worry about what happens after that). Perhaps you could make this a user-option in RoundCube if it isn't already there?

I guess this can work too.
About your localization bproblem. I also had some problems with displaying special characters (since I'm brazilian). I just had to uncomment the following line in php.ini
default_charset = "iso-8859-1"

If users are already using IMAP, then the sent folder in their
application (Thunderbird, Outlook, Mail.app) will already look the
same as the folder in their webmail client (assuming everything is
configured correctly on the IMAP server and on the client).
If they are using POP, it seems more straightforward just to have
them to switch to using IMAP (perhaps providing a setup wizard/guide
if required) than to have them use POP and try and kludge it. That is
the sort of problem IMAP is designed to solve, after all. :-)
