Maildrop doesn't get HOMEDIR from LDAP for sure, it looks like it gets
it from authdaemon.

Well it is a pain in a back because my LDAP is M$ AD and I have
virtual users only.
I just want maildrop to ceate "homedirs" or maildir  for user.

So what is th best way to create homedirs for virtual users and use
Maildrop too?
