Question
How to make Roundcube webmail save new recipient email addresses to contact list?
Answer
This functionality is not implemented in Plesk Roundcube by default.
If you would like to see this feature in Roundcube shipped with Plesk, please vote for it on Plesk UserVoice:
As a workaround, add new contacts manually:
-
Log in to Roundcube webmail.
-
Click Contacts.
-
Click on the
button in the Contacts section. -
Add a new contact and click Save.
Using the Automatic Address Book plugin for Roundcube
Note: Installation and customization of this 3rd-party plugin is not covered by Plesk Support.
-
Connect to a Plesk server via SSH.
-
Download the Automatic Address Book plugin for Roundcube:
# git clone https://github.com/sblaisot/automatic_addressbook.git
-
Move the plugin to the Roundcube 'plugin' directory:
# mv automatic_addressbook /usr/share/psa-roundcube/plugins/
-
Update the 'roundcubemail' MySQL database:
# mysql -uadmin -p`cat /etc/psa/.psa.shadow` roundcubemail < /usr/share/psa-roundcube/plugins/automatic_addressbook/SQL/mysql.initial.sql
-
Modify the Roundcube configuration file:
5.1. Open the
config.inc.phpin a text editor. In this example, we are using the vi editor:# vi /usr/share/psa-roundcube/config/config.inc.php
5.2. Add the following line at the end of the file:
CONFIG_TEXT: $rcmail_config['plugins'] = array('automatic_addressbook',);
5.3. Save the changes and close the file.
Now, every new recipient email address will be automatically saved to the contacts.
