It would also be very nice if courier could be configured to make the non-existent maildirs for authenticated users (using the maildir supplied by the auth module) both when first delivering mail to an account and when first logging into an account from sqwebmail, and probably the other mail access interfaces as well.

If you use maildrop for delivery, you can do anything you want. Search the courier list archives. Several people have posted maildrop scripts to do exactly what you describe.

You can also save yourself the trouble for system users by running

maildirmake /etc/skel/Maildir

and all your new system users will always have a maildir set up when you create their HOME directory. For virtual users, you'll need some scripts to administer them anyway, so make sure your scripts create the maildir for every virtual user who is created.
