I'd watch out for Outlook 2013 and folder creation.

I have seen a number of instances where folders are created within 
Outlook but not on the server, much to the user's confusion when they 
try to access the folder using roundcube. This leads to the filder being 
stored in the cache of Outlook, but never properly on the server.

To fix this, I have had to create entirely new empty folders with 
different names in roundcube, make sure they exist in Outlook, then copy 
the messages over in Outlook.  Quite a PITA.

HTH,

Phil
