yea sorry, lemme break it down,

voicemail systems and usage are analogous (at a high level) to email 
systems and usage.

with a voicemail service provider, you are given an account and an 
access phone number, and you configure your password.  when your phone 
misses calls, your phone is configured to forward missed calls to your 
voicemail access number.  if you know that number, you can use any phone 
to check your voicemail.

email is the same, you are given an account and a password and an access 
address.  mails sent to you get collected on the server.  as long as you 
  know your mail address, you can use any mail client to access your mail

I was saying that roundcube serves the purpose of email client 
(kinda)/phone for accessing voicemail, as opposed to what I thought the 
OP thought roundcube did, which sounded like a service provider/ email 
server.
