"Webmail is turned off." But it's not
First off, I have searched the forums (and Google) but nothing that's turned up has been relevant to my set-up.
I have multiple Drupal 7 web sites up on the same Mac Mini Server, and they all work just fine, even though all of their files are stored on an external drive connected to the Mini. I say that to establish that I've already found and implemented the fixes to get virtual hosting working.
I have the Mail Server up and running as well, and can successfully send and receive mail via IMAP accounts both while logged into the Mini and also remotely by pointing the Mail app on another Mac to the Mini and setting up an IMAP account there. Everything works just great.
The issue is webmail. When I point my browser to www.example.com/webmail I get this:
Webmail is turned off. You can turn it on by using the Server app on the server.
Clearly it is turned on, else I wouldn't be here with my puzzled hat on.
My router is a Time Capsule. I have a lot of ports forwarded to the Mini but there's no entry there for a "Webmail" service--but this should just go in as HTTP, right? I don't believe any port other than 80 is applicable here.
For the Web Server configuration for the site in question that I want Webmail working on, I have www.example.com and example.com set to point at the external drive volume where that particular site's Drupal files live. Does the Webmail access freak out because that domain's web site isn't at some default location it expects to see when looking for the Webmail interface files? If so, where are they and how do I get to them?
Many thanks in advance!
So, I've done some more digging. Thank you Apple, for thoughtfully providing documentation on your included software! All you told me was that to enable webmail I had to check one box in the Server App.
Sigh.
Okay, rant off. It's pretty obvious from the log entries I posted that both a user and a database are missing from postgres. After some searching I found an INSTALL document, that says this:
* PostgreSQL
To use Roundcube with PostgreSQL support you have to follow these
simple steps, which have to be done as the postgres system user (or
which ever is the database superuser):
$ createuser roundcube
$ createdb -O roundcube -E UNICODE roundcubemail
$ psql roundcubemail
roundcubemail =# ALTER USER roundcube WITH PASSWORD 'the_new_password';
roundcubemail =# \c - roundcube
roundcubemail => \i SQL/postgres.initial.sql
All this has been tested with PostgreSQL 8.x and 7.4.x. Older
versions don't have a -O option for the createdb, so if you are
using that version you'll have to change ownership of the DB later.
Okay, good...except it doesn't tell me how to get to the $ prompt for entering the first set of commands. On a hunch I tried just typing "postgres" at the command prompt and got this:
postgres does not know where to find the server configuration file.
You must specify the --config-file or -D invocation option or set the PGDATA environment variable.
I Googled that whole section as my search item and about the only relevant thing I got was info on how to set one's environment variables--which I already know how to do. What I don't know is where this variable is supposed to point.
Okay, I'm at my limit, I've run out of fingers to hold on various bullet points. Is there some clear, concise how-to on setting all this up that doesn't assume I already know half this stuff?

Why is iMessage taking my incoming emails and then not making them available for my PC to get? Why can I not send a text msg with photos when iMessage is turned off (but MMS is still on).
I compose an iMessage with the destination as my email address and I attach 2 photos I want on my PC. I send them several times from my iPhone 5C but they never arrive. I look at my ipad later and realize that it's iMessage app is getting ( and swallowing) these emails. I then turn the ipad off. Still can't get the photos through because iphone is now getting them on it's iMessage. I turn off the iMessage feature and try to send photos from text msging. Phone tells me it can't send photos unless iMessage it turned on. What happened to regular MMS text messaging? I go and try to send photos as an email attachment and see that there is no option to attach from the stupid email program. I look up online to learn about the brave new world of apple attachments and send them.
Why is iMessage taking my incoming emails and then not making them available for my PC to get?
The email program on my iphone is not configured to remove messages from the server.
If iMessage is turned off I don't have the issue.
Why can I not send a text msg with photos when iMessage is turned off (but MMS is still on).Did not work. I've selected iMessage to ON and left it. After a few hours I recieved a message "activation unsuccessful. Turn on iMessage to try again". This has been going on for the past 3 days.

My new iPhone 5 has black and white lines on the screen. It's not been damaged. I've tried turning it off but this does not solve the problem? Please help. I can't find my answer on the Internet.
By far the most common problem hardware-wise seems to be scuffs on the aluminium. Yours is the first report of a faulty screen I've seen.
If you use the same Apple ID on both devices it'll sync whatever you want it to - music/apps/photos/messages/etc.
I've just switched from a Galaxy S3 to iPhone 5 (having already owned an iPad for a while) so I'm in a similar position! -

My Mac book pre suddenly got power off meanwhile it was fully charged. I tried to turn on but it's not working. I reconnected charger and the green light showing with blinking. How can I fix it?

Well the blinking light shows it's charging, however just to make sure.
Reset the SMC, then connect the machine to a power source that doesn't have a lot of other power items on the same lines (in the walls) in the same room and see how it is in the morning.
For instance use a powerline in another spare room that isn't being used as much.

I can't search for apps by pulling down on the home screen. Today view in Notification Center is turned off, but today view comes up when I pull down, not Spotlight Search.
Pull down starting in the middle of the home page, not at the top.

I'm having problems with my email account. I receive emails when I'm in a wifi zone. But if the wifi is turned off and i'm not in a zone I don't receive my emails through the cellular network. Only when I power off the phone and turn it back on, do I receive the emails through the cellualr network (again with the wifi off)
In your email settings on the phone check to make sure it is set to receive emails on cellular network. It's a feature you can turn off so your phone isn't constantly updating emails on the cell network, but if you are usually in a place with wifi and aren't concerned about going over your data allowance, you can turn it back on.

While browsing the internet with my iPhone 4S the screen goes black and it looks like it's turning off, but it pops up to the unlock keypad screen. It has plenty battery and I was wondering if it is an issue of using too much of the iPhones RAM or not. I have no other apps open besides Messages. I am getting kind of worried as it started around two weeks ago and it has gotten increasingly frequent.
Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Try each of these steps in order until the issue is resolved.
