Thanks for the feedback.

FWIW, I ended up installing roundcube by hand, since even stretch
doesn't have the latest release (1.2.4) and I had trouble with
dbconfig-common failing to configure the database.

And *then* I found out about the Rainloop project and installed *that*
and I had a mobile-friendly webmail interface that is pretty awesome. :)

So good riddance roundcube for me.. Now I guess "someone" will need to
work on a package for *that*. ;)

Thanks again!
