I've not tested this myself, as I don't need it.
But I found this article:

If we are talking about how to get mail() working then all you need is the local sendmail bin
apt-get install sendmail-bin
is the package name from what I remember.

Both of those are just clients to the IMAP server so all you should need to do is extract it into a folder.

It's been a long time
I've checked some of your tutorials and you send mails to
test@test.com
how can I create a mail like that? and how to make it work with roundcube. That's what I meant
Full tutorial please

You have to own the domain test.com for that to work, you can't just install a webmail client.

I thought you created a dummy inbox for testing purposes.
i've found something cool at mail.com but there's one huge problem here
I can't get the IMAP and POP3 because i'm not premium, and I will never be for that matter xD
what's the best solution then? create some dummy gmail or hotmail or whatever email account and use it with roundcube?

I created one on a domain that I own, I think it was
test@jacekk.co.uk at the time. So if you have a domain with a hosting provider you might be able to use that.
I doubt you will be able to use roundcube with gMail, they will want you to use their interface.

I've already used with one of the two programs.
I don't really recall if it was with squirrel or roundcube but I think it was squirrel. I had no problem using it.
the problem is i'm only developing locally, and this is just for fun, self learning.
Jacek just a little off-topic here.
A quick question
I'm following some tutorials about MVC structure. My problem is that whenever an error is shown I can't see it.
in this php.ini part
; Common Values:
; E_ALL (Show all errors, warnings and notices including coding standards.)
; E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE (Show all errors, except for notices)
; E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE & ~E_STRICT (Show all errors, except for notices and coding standards warnings.)
; E_COMPILE_ERROR|E_RECOVERABLE_ERROR|E_ERROR|E_CORE_ERROR (Show only errors)
; Default Value: E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE & ~E_STRICT & ~E_DEPRECATED
; Development Value: E_ALL
; Production Value: E_ALL & ~E_DEPRECATED & ~E_STRICT
; http://php.net/error-reporting
error_reportingerror_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_DEPRECATED & ~E_STRICT
i should change
this
error_reportingerror_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_DEPRECATED & ~E_STRICT
into this
error_reportingerror_reporting = E_ALL
right?
BTW i've installed this php5- things
sudo apt-get install php5 php5-curl php5-gd php5-ffmpeg php5-cgi php5-fpm php5-dev php5-geoip php5-xdebug php5-dbg
too much stuff no?
EDIT1: it seems I was able to fix it

Don't need anymore lol
in the php.ini there is an option similar to error_reporting: off, I simply had to change it to on hehe
