We use:

        mail_home = /srv/mailstore/%256LRHu/%Ld/%Ln
        mail: mdbox:~/mdbox

and I just noticed one of our newly provisioned users initially failed
to pop her mails. I saw several of these:

        dovecot::  pop3(new.u...@example.net): Error: Couldn't open INBOX: 
Mailbox doesn't exist: INBOX
        dovecot::  pop3(new.u...@example.net): Couldn't open INBOX top=0/0, 
retr=0/0, del=0/0, size=0

before she switched to imap and then everything looked fine:

        dovecot::  imap(new.u...@example.net): Disconnected: Logged out 
bytes=11/338

Looking at the timestamps in the filesystem I see that the users home
directory wasn't created before switcing to imap.

Is this a know problem?
