Greetings,

I've just noticed that during the portupgrade the mail/roundcube overwrites the 
existing db.inc.php and mail.inc.php, resetting everything to the default.
No checks were made for the existing files and I had to reconfigure everything from the scratch.

Thought this might be unintentional, as the default behavior for FreeBSD 
port upgrade scripts is to keep existing configs.

Best regards,
Vahan
