Hmm, dovecot is all about retrieving received mail. If you need things to be done before a user retrieves mail initially, you _need_ to do it either via postfixadmin (don't know that piece) or using the LDA you are using to route the mail to the fitting (virtual) user. procmail for example could make you happy here (man procmailex). major drawback however for all those operations is that things are checked over and over again for each mail received. another (more sane) option would be to write the list of newly created users into a file/database/... and have a cronjob loop over this list, create the skeleton things you need and finally remove the user if the creation was successfull. Yet keep in mind that cron jobs are executed once a minute at most, so the time between creating the user and the cronjob running might cause some mails getting in before your user has been correctly "initialized". -- Udo Rader bestsolution.at EDV Systemhaus GmbH http://www.bestsolution.at
