Did you make all that yourself? How long did it take you to get it working with all errors that can/do occurs?

Yes, I did it myself. Took me about 3.5 months to build the entire system. The provisioning system took me about a week or so to write.

I didn't say it was impossible, just that it's not feasible. It just takes to long (i.e. time is money). Why fiddle with scripts back and forth when it's a two/three liner on each server to take care of all this? Which is 'bulletproof' (a lot more stable than scripting all this).

Actually, for me, the maildir creation was a 2 liner in the provisioning scripts. Since I had a shared data store, I just mounted the spool directory on the provisioning server and created them directly.

I'm lazy and busy. I don't have time to write huge scripts that do this, when I can get it done in less then a minute...
