This is not a maildir.  It's just a file.  Courier will default to creating an 
mbox for an account if a maildir isn't set up (so you don't lose the mail), 
but courier-pop3 doesn't read mbox files, just maildirs.

So for each user, you need to create a maildir using the "maildirmake" command 
which is part of courier.  Maildir are special kinds of folders which have 
certain subfolders and certain permissions.  "maildirmake" will take care of 
everything for you - just run it as the proper user.  So as user "luked" you 
should rename the /home/luked/Maildir file (assuming it has any mail in there 
you want, if not just delete it) and then run "maildirmake ~/Maildir"  Now 
mail should be delivered to the Maildir and courier-pop3 will be able to read 
it.
