should I chmod it to rwxrwxr-x ? or ?
I think you'll find the Maildir directory has to be owned by the user. So:

# cd /home/sbt.net.au
# chmod 700 Maildir
# cd Maildir && find . -type f -exec chmod 600 {} \;
# find . -type d -exec chmod 700 {} \;
# cd ..
# chown -R <user> Maildir
Where <user> is the person who will be logging in to check sbt.net.au's 
mailbox.

Best regards,
Gonzalo
