My email hosting provider gives me access to a personal, cheap IMAP server with limited mail storage space (100 Mb). I like this, because I do not want (i.e: know how) to administer a mail server. However, I want to be able to store more than just 100 Mo of emails. How should I go about doing this?
- Setting up an intermediary IMAP server that would sit client-side between Roundcube and my hosted server?
- Configure Roundcube for email archiving after the email has been deleted from the IMAP server? Does this setting even exist?
I have full control (and virtually unlimited storage space) of the machine where Roundcube is installed.

What I finally did was to set up a dovecot server that retrieves my emails by POP3, stores them in a maildir and serves them to Roundcube by IMAP.
