I got dovecot working, but I would like to know when and what creates the mailbox (cur, new, trash, etc ). I noticed that when a client connects for the first time that mailbox is created or when a mail arrives for the first time (i think).

Dovecot creates the INBOX for the user. Clients create the rest of the mailboxes.

I would like to give each mailbox a Spam folder, and possibly doing this automatically. Is this possible with some dovecot setting and not via scripting.

Nope. The easiest way to do this would be with http://wiki.dovecot.org/PostLoginScripting
