Install roundcube rpm and follow steps as given here
http://www.tecmint.com/install-and-configure-roundcube-webmail-for-postfix-mail-server/

# yum -y install roundcubemail
# yum -y install php-mysqlnd

edit /etc/roundcube/config.inc.php (after copying config.inc.php.sample)
Here is the diff

in mysql create db RoundCube_db, user roundcube with all access to RoundCube_db

mysql -u mysql -p
mysql> CREATE DATABASE RoundCube_db;
mysql> Create user 'roundcube' identified by 'some_password';
mysql> grant all privileges on RoundCube_db.* to roundcube;
mysql> flush privileges;
mysql> quit;


Initialize roundcube db

mysql -u mysql -p RoundCube_db < /usr/share/roundcubemail/SQL/mysql.initial.sql

I also edited /etc/roundcube/defaults.inc.php

php mysql for some strange reason uses /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock and I
have not figured out where to configure this socket. So as a shortcut
i did the following

# cd /var/lib/mysql
# ln -s /var/lib/mysqld/mysqld.sock mysql.com
# service httpd restart

I used chrome browser on http://127.0.0.1/roundcubemail

and I am able to read and send emails

Some typo here. It should have been ln -s /var/lib/mysqld/mysql.sock mysql.sock

I figured out the issue with php mysql. It uses /etc/php.ini. Just
have the following
/etc/php.ini
pdo_mysql.default_socket= /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock

So I was able to setup roundcube using the instructions from the link
I gave earlier.
The only thing that did not work initially was the db connection to MySQL which
got fixed by creating the link and later I found that by making the above change
to php.in, the soft link for mysql.sock is not needed.
