I asked the bincimap author about this, and he wrote the code the same day. I asked the author of the "courier auto maildir creator patch" to have him update his patch for the latest courier(-imap), and he did it the next day. So great thanks goes to these fellows. So..., both bincimap and courier-imap can make the freaking Maildir on successfull login now, but please do test it (Vincent Danen and Buchan Milne), I haven't done much serious testing yet. Someone mentioned a similar patch for uw-imap?, but that means one needs to first patch it to recongnize Maildir, and then also make the dir. Can't we just move courier-imap to main and move uw-imap to contribs and have postfix deliver to Maildirs for 9.1, or is it too late? Chears.
