Well, you can use post-login scripting to run thing along the lines of:
#!/bin/bash
error () {
logger ....
exit 1
}
if ! test -d "$HOME"; then
sudo mkdir "$HOME" || error
sudo chown "$USER" "$HOME" || error
cp -r /etc/skel/* /etc/skel/.??* "$HOME" || error
fi
exec /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap "$@"
See: http://wiki.dovecot.org/PostLoginScripting esp.:
"WARNING: The process still runs as root at this point! The privileges are
dropped only after the imap process starts. You can change this by setting
mail_drop_priv_before_exec=yes."
