I understand now that your load balancer is as well your SSL  
accelerator.  In that scenario, it makes sense.
I may wait for NGINX to add the feature :) or just use Pound which  
seems to have it as well (never noticed it was there before).

Thanks, if I can do it without having to patch the code and use the  
provided API  - I will do so (when I have time) and just then post the  
result.
I can live with my patch for the time being.

I know about them, they are not a bad product but the cost does not  
justify a purchase for my usage when I can perform the same in  
software without CAPEX atm.
Citrix Netscaler AS 7000 are supposed to be good as well.

I will take from this discussion that you/the roundcube team are not  
really interested in merging this patch.
Could someone close the ticket in that case as I am not able to do it.

Thank you to everyone for your time in answering me and all the  
information shared.

Thomas
