I assume you mean that you're using Solaris 7.
If you want Solaris useradd to create Maildir's in new user directories
with the -m flag, you need to create a Maildir in /etc/skel.
You do this by:
/var/qmail/bin/maildirmake /etc/skel/Maildir/
After that, all new user directories created with useradd -m will
have Maildir's created by default. That is to say, it's not
retroactive. :)
