To Manage Session Timeouts in Roundcube ¶

By default, Roundcube does not time out in the browser. However, session timeout settings can be added.

Log in to the server at the CLI as root, either via SSH or from the terminal
At the CLI, run the following to edit the Roundcube setting template–this will prevent the changes from being overwritten upon update:
```
~iworx/bin/config.pex --customize-template mail/roundcube-config.tpl --for-global
```
Add the following. This will define a session timeout in minutes:
```
// In Minutes
$rcmail_config['session_lifetime'] = 10;
```
Save the file and exit the template editor
