Passwords can be changed via webmail, with some additional setup. They can be stored encrypted, however you must realize that fundamental laws of this universe will not allow you to use hash-based authentication via IMAP when encrypted passwords are used. The server must have password in plain text, in order to be able to recalculate the hashes.
Ok, I assume however I can use plain text password over SSL/TLS, right?
Yes, but that's a separate configuration issue. Whether you're going to allow non-encrypted IMAP, POP3, or HTTP connections is separate from whether or not passwords are kept encrypted or in plain text.
That's what you'll have with virtual shared folders.
Any pointer to something explaining what virtual shared folders are and how to make them with courier?
There's a README in the source; you can also look at it here: http://www.courier-mta.org/imap/README.sharedfolders.html
Additionally, you need to understand IMAP access control lists. http://www.rfc-archive.org/getrfc.php?rfc=4314
Does that mean, assuming a sql backend, that, once a new account has been added in the users table, someone has to manually issue the maildirmake command in a shell?
Only if the process that adds a new user doesn't do that itself.
Since you already have a process that creates a new user entry, I would expect it to complete the job and set up the account as well. Why would it stop without the job being completely done, and force you to do it manually?
If so, are you aware of any third party web interface that takes care of account provisioning for courier?
No. There isn't really any standard way of doing it. Each organization tends to maintain their mailboxes in their own particular way; I'm sure that there are various, generic, account management packages floating out there, only a Google search away.
