Sadly, I'm one of them. Currently during the provisioning it's not guaranteed that a user will have a mailbox in the file system, so autocreating it during pop logins is a bless. :) But POP3 doesn't use anything except INBOX, so why do you need to autocreate them there? I'd think it's useful only with IMAP.
You mean the four folders, or the inbox itself? For the inbox itself: if there is no such directory, the login will fail and the user will look for errors.
INBOX is always auto-created. In earlier versions there were a couple of bugs that caused it to fail though.
For the other folders: we have a crappy webmail, which messes directly with the maildir, and that also doesn't autocreate the mailboxes, so if the user only logs in via pop and webmail, and I only create inbox, he will miss trash, drafts and sent...
Weird, I know. :)
Oh well. That also means then that my future autocreate plugin won't work with your webmail, because it doesn't physically create the mailboxes.
