Ok, so when you point to browser to the domain of a Vsite and add 
/webmail to it, then I suppose it loads the RoundCube install of that 
Vsite, right?

Let's break this down:

- Site is not hosted on the BlueOnyx
- DNS points to the external server where that site is located
- http://<externa-site>/webmail brings up /webmail on the primary Vsite
   of the BlueOnyx?

I fail to see how *anything* on the BlueOnyx itself could facilitate 
that. If the DNS A record points to the external server and a web 
request to http://<externa-site>/webmail is redirected to the BlueOnyx?

In that case the redirection happens on the eternal server. Possibly in 
a .htaccess in the webspace of that site, possibly in the Apache or 
Nginx configuration of the external server.

So the next step would be to check these 2-3 things on one of the 
external servers to see if you find anything.
