Interesting... let me check something.

Can you create a file named test in /var/www/_apps/roundcubemail-1.3.4/.well-known/acme-challenge containing "1234"?
Since we're currently getting a 404 instead of a 403, it doesn't look like the roundcube htaccess file is interfering.

We are for sure accessing the right vhost now.

Let's try renaming 1234 to letsdebug-test
Let me know once it's done.
I think it's the IPv6 specific vHost that might be interfering.

I've checked incognito in chrome and get the same and the debug URL is not found here.....? Weird
Anyway, pls check debug link now.
We can ditch ip6.f4g.tech for now.

Try removing your AAAA record then running this:
sudo certbot certonly --apache -d "webmail.f4g.tech" --dry-run
2 Likes
I'm out for lunch, but I'll check back as soon as I return. I suspect that with the removal of the AAAA record, everything I previously gave you will work beautifully. You really want to clean up your vHost configuration files in similar fashion to what I did with the one. Certbot will then create all of the correct port 443 configuration files and the correct redirects in the port 80 configuration files.

Enjoy your sandwich! 
I am wondering what if I would like to, or have to in the future, as we move over to ipv6, set this up as ipv6? Would I specify a ipv6 address in the vhconf file and disable DNS A record?
Alas, let's see this working first before I take such a leap 
Thanks for your help so far. Appreciated.
PS Disabling ipv6 on my network adaptor allowed me to see what you see in Chrome. Can we prevent certbot from using it?

I'm still out at lunch, but I wanted to say that your IPv6 address (AAAA record) itself is fine. It's that first vHost set to answer the IPv6 address specifically that was causing most of the issue. You should be able to simply disable that vHost for now instead of removing the IPv6 record and have things work correctly. Changing that vHost from IPv6:80 to *:80 should work too.

sudo certbot certonly --apache -d "webmail.f4g.tech" --dry-run
IMPORTANT NOTES:
- The dry run was successful.
Can't run for real cos I exceeded my 5 tries quota - next week I think now 
OK, so some house cleaning to do by the looks of it. I remember I thought that certbot apache plugin had left my vhconf files rather 'untidy' - I wanted just one conf file where I could see everything in one edit/ view. Looks like I have to be careful where I step now that certbot has made itself resident in my conf files 
The ip6.f4g site was actually to force client browsers eg to load ipv6; part of a previous debugging session

If your Apache configuration is such that you don't want certbot messing with it, you might be better off using its webroot plugin rather than its Apache plugin (assuming that you have Apache configured for each domain to have a directory path it can use for the .well-known directory).
