I installed Courier on Ubuntu (Gutsy) today. After making very few changes to the configuration via the web management interface (and then to iptables) I succesfully got mail delivered, but as a single flat file of concatenated email messages in the user's home directory named Maildir. I want it delivered as maildirs.

You need to make the maildirs first. If they don't exist, courier delivers in the mbox format. Use the 'maildirmake' utility that comes with courier. (Check out 'man maildirmake' for the syntax.) Make sure the 'Maildir' is owned by the proper user and group. For system users, that would be the user themselves. For virtual users, that would be the user and group you have specified in whatever database you are using to specify virtual users.
