Yes, definately. Infact, a configurable list of mailboxes to create
would be the ideal, as currently my user creation scripts also create an
INBOX.trash.

Ooh, ooh, even better, auto creation of user.* mailboxes on delivery,
providing that user exists... that way I don't have to worry about user
mailboxes at all!

I'm not asking you to do that, tho, but if you send me the patch you
have so far, I wouldn't mind playing with it a little.

Thanks,
        T.
