You shouldn't make your mail writeable to all, as long as your uid/gid match
whatever you have in your record in mysql everything works with proper
permissions. I didn't even think courier (or is it maildrop) would deliver
mail to a a+rw directory.
The process is however you want to make it, but its pretty much create a
record of a user, create the users home directory and Maildir with proper
permissions.
There are several admin style tools to automate this process, or you manage
your own. quica http://quica.sourceforge.net/ is a good example of one.

authentication modules
http://www.courier-mta.org/install.html#authlib
i try maildirmake /mail/user1 and it works but when i try to send or
receive mail for this user, Courier gives me : access denied to :
/mail/user1
Theese directories :
/mail/user1/
/cur
/new
/tmp
are all owned by daemon
Any helps ???
how did you setup user1? what is user1's uid/gid?
