    Thank you very much!

    I look at it it's good but I want postfix load with Roundcube and not Gmail. I want postfix for a transfer agent, dovetoc and Roundcube for the browser.

    Okay, DigitalOcean has a tutorial that explains how to set it up on UBuntu 12.04; but I think you could use the same instructions for latest versions of uBuntu. There should be a separate tutorial for setting up roundcube. Will search it later in the evening. All the best!

    end up in the last stage where the Roundcube failure where I got this message " 

    DATABASE ERROR: CONNECTION FAILED!

    Unable to connect to the database!
