Where do you "provide" the "full email" or "only username"? What does it do 
with these.

Well, I can't find much documentation on roundcube, 
http://trac.roundcube.net/wiki/Howto_Config is very thin. Since I don't care to 
install the software, maybe you can provide some more information on how you 
are configuring it, what the configuration statements available are, and any 
comments near the configuration statement that can help give us a clue as to 
how the software is supposed to work ...
