Oops.  Forgot to tell you what needs to be set.  In /etc/imapd.conf, you
need to set autocreatequota to something other than 0.  If you want no
quotas, then set it to -1.  If you want to create folders other than
just the INBOX, set autocreatefolders to them, separated by spaces.  I
didn't implement tabs because I didn't feel like it. :-)  All of the
folders listed in autocreatefolders will be created as subfolders of
INBOX.  So:

autocreatequota: -1
autocreatefolders: Trash sent-mail

will create the folders INBOX, INBOX.Trash, and INBOX.sent-mail upon
SELECTion of the INBOX.  It's transparent to the client unless the
client performs a LIST or LSUB or whatever before SELECTing the INBOX. 
Note that trying to do it upon issuing a LIST or whatever is a bad idea
because then they would get created for admins, and that's a bad idea.
