dovecot sources 2.2.18 (src/lib-storage/fail-mailbox.c):
static int
fail_mailbox_create(struct mailbox *box,
                     const struct mailbox_update *update ATTR_UNUSED,
                     bool directory ATTR_UNUSED)

         mail_storage_set_error(box->storage, MAIL_ERROR_NOTPOSSIBLE,
                                "Mailbox can't be created");
         return -1;
