Roundcube: How do decrease response time to failed login attempts?

  • 772

I'm tweaking my roundcube configuration which is using postfix/dovecot on the backend.

One annoyance is that if bad credentials are provided, it takes roundcube 20 to 30 seconds to respond. I was able to get this down to a more reasonable 8 seconds by setting $config['imap_timeout'] = 1 but that's still pretty slow.

Judging by the logs, roundcube tries to login 5 or 6 times before giving up. Is there a way to change how many times it logs in? Is there another way to improve response time?

    I found this hack: https://github.com/roundcube/roundcubemail/issues/7754

    Change line 163 of the rcube_imap.php file in Debian distribution of rc in /var/lib/roundcube/program/lib/Roundcube to:

    } while(!$this->conn->connected() && $data['retry']);
