Thanks for the link!

Another way would be to convert your old users with maildir2imapdir. A 3
lines bash script would do it (I'm also lazy).
For new users, I am using this wrapper. It just creates a symlink, as
suggested in the alternate approach of LWB, so you don't have to change
your current configuration of neither qmail, pop3d nor vpopmail :-)
#!/bin/sh
if [ ! -e "$HOME/Maildir/INBOX" ] ; then
ln -s "$HOME/Maildir" "$HOME/Maildir/INBOX"
fi
exec $@
What do you think?
