The sources aren't the only place to change the structure of user mailboxes. Look at the command line settings for Xmail. http://www.xmailserver.org/Readme.html#command_line
The mail path can be changed at runtime manually, inside /etc/init.d/xmail (on linux) or in the registry at HKLM\SOFTWARE\GNU\XMail\Mail_CMD_Line. This could change the location of MailRoot. Further, as someone who's migrated from a Win32 install to a Linux install, I can also say that the usage of the -MM (maildir/linux) and -Mm (mailbox/windows) on the command line make a big difference on the Mailroot's domains structure ( http://www.xmailserver.org/Readme.html#mailroot_structure). Mailbox storage is very different than maildir storage. This auth script may work for someone with a maildir/*nix srtucture (-MM), but not for someone like me who uses mailbox/windows (-Mm) structure because of a Windows to *nix migration at some point (or even *nix to Windows for that matter). Except for logs files and filter tab files, you should really let XMail handle it's own files and do most of your work by connecting to the server over a network interface. It also leaves the option open for IMAP and XMail to be run from different machines at busy installations. I must admit, the idea of easy IMAP is tempting though. The mail domains structure is porbably why your srcipt didn't work for me.
