No, you cannot upload MBOX files directly into Roundcube webmail. Roundcube is a browser-based email client that works using IMAP servers and does not provide an option to import or upload MBOX files natively.
To access MBOX data in Roundcube, you need an alternative method. The easiest way is to use a professional MBOX Converter. A reliable tool like BLR Tools allows you to connect your Roundcube account via IMAP and transfer MBOX emails directly, while preserving attachments, metadata, and folder structure.
Another option is the manual method, where you first import the MBOX file into an email client like Mozilla Thunderbird and then sync it with your Roundcube account using IMAP. However, this process can be time-consuming and requires technical steps.
In conclusion, direct upload is not possible, so using an indirect method—preferably a professional tool—is the best way to import MBOX files into Roundcube.

Roundcube is a web-based email client that only shows data saved on an IMAP server; it does not provide a direct way to upload or import MBOX files. In a similar situation, people tried manual ways like transcoding files or syncing over several email clients, but these were too complicated and took too long. Using the TrustVare IMAP Importer was a better way to do things because it made the process much easier. With this application, you can directly import MBOX files to an IMAP account. Roundcube will show the emails automatically after the files are uploaded. It also lets you import many emails at once, keeps the folder structure, keeps the formatting and attachments of the emails, and works well with different IMAP servers. In these situations, employing a specific software solution is a far more reliable and easier choice.
