Not really. If all of your users require the same delivery instructions,
then those instructions should be part of qmail-start's "defaultdelivery"
argument, presumably in the /var/qmail/rc script. A user needs a ".qmail"
file when that user desires a delivery method that is not the default.

700 permissions for all relevant directories (Maildir, Maildir/cur,
Maildir/new, Maildir/tmp) is ideal. qmail will allow for a wide variety of
permissions on the Maildir, but nobody else should be reading a user's email
anyway.
