Thanks   for   the   patch.    I   have   adapted   it   for   roundcube
0.2-stable.  However,  with  Apache,  I  don't see  anything  either  in
/var/log/apache2/error.log or in /var/log/roundcube/errors. Where should
the line appear?

If this only work with PHP as  CGI or FCGI, it would be better to output
this  line  in /var/log/roundcube/errors.  Moreover,  you should  modify
imap.inc instead. For example, the following line:
    $conn->error    .= 'Authentication for ' . $user . ' failed (LOGIN): "';

Thanks.
