Hi Ross!

This is how it works: you should avoid modifying defaults.inc.php (which
are default settings) and modify only config.inc.php (which is here to
override any defaults). See the comment at the top of config.inc.php.

You should also had a debconf question about this field ("Please select
the IMAP server(s) that should be used with RoundCube.").
