It's used for storing addressbook, identities and preferences for each user
Thanks Andrea. Am I correct that roundcube requires the mysql database?

It requires a database, yes. It supports several varieties, including mysql, postgres, etc. Choose your favorite.

Or choose what works best for your deployment. Grant's lack of knowledge of mail storage formats suggests this is a personal/SOHO server. In which case sqlite is probably his best bet.

no no, roundcube does not need mysql, it does need a backend for user prefs, not for mailstorage
backend can be any storage as sql/sqlite/pdo but only for user prefs and if wanted for address books, but it all depends on what admin wants, its not user selected

yes
as the question is asked it would be no
it would be more fair to say one of mysql, sqlite, postgresql is needed
it makes a diff atleast for me, i have not talked about ldap here :)
