So why doesn't binc create the correct directory structure on its own?
I've tried creating it manually with a new account:
$HOME/users/<virtualpop>/.Sent or $HOME/users/<virtualpop>/Sent
and nothing works. The only thing showing is INBOX. Trying to subscribe
to the directories I've created doesn't work because they never show up in
the client.
The client is Mozilla Thunderbird.

Thunderbird at the moment, but Squirrel Mail was doing the same.

Tried this and binc doesn't seem to create the directory structure it
needs on its own.
