I myself use a Roundcube Webmail plugin called "rcguard" which shows a "captcha" after 5 login attempt failures ( no.of attempts can be altered). Only after entering both the "password" & "captcha" correctly, the user will be able to login. Other plugins with similar functionality are "antibruteforce" , "captcha". "Fail2ban" specified by ZhangHuangbin is also a nice option. Google "roundcube plugin repository" and you'll find them.
