Autologin to roundcube webmail hosted on shared hosting

edited March 2022 in General

I have a shared hosting package which uses cpanel, conveniently it has roundcube webmail. Once I create an email account for my domain, I can send and receive email without problem.

Now I want to create a link so that if an user click on it— will bring to roundcube inbox page immediately, all without inputting user and password (I guess I have to hardcode the user and password).

I see this github project → https://github.com/alexjeen/Roundcube-AutoLogin which sum my use case perfectly, but I see that RoundCube installation has to be on the same domain the code is run. I don't know how to do that on shared hosting environment. If I had to use my own vps, I'll gladly do that ! But I don't know how to set it up like before on my shared hosting.

What are my option here ? To be honest, I don't really know much about IMAP POP etc. I just recently find information all over the internet in regarding how to setup roundcube on Ubuntu server, unfortunately none of them provide information on integrating with email service— in this case I want to use the configuration that my shared hosting provider uses. It shouldn't be hard, no?

    If it's on shared hosting, AFAIK, your host should configure that.

    I do that for DirectAdmin but not sure for cPanel though.

    I feel like modifying something like this for your use case might be simpler: https://github.com/synox/disposable-mailbox

    Because you're basically wanting a public inbox, right? That's what temporary email sites do, so going after that type of code gives a similar function.

    Not really, seems like I phrased it badly on my thread.

    I mean if I were to click the link, it will bring to roundcube page hosted by my shared hosting provider, I already know the user and password- just wondering if this kind of configuration is possible or no.
