To keep the auth/db separation, maybe the mailbox creation call could be made
from the top level of dbmail-adduser?
The overhead of running find_create_mailbox() on each login would be fairly
low, since I'd guess that 90% of users would be looking for an INBOX, and the
find part of find_create is just as quick as just a find.
Hmm... I'm still kind of attached to the idea that mailboxes are created if
something needs to be delivered, and not necessarily when you go looking.
