virtdomains and autocreateinboxfolders not working!! -SOLVED

[Matt Goebel]

After some further investigation I've figured out a workaround/fix for
this problem.  

Web-cyradm uses the function createmb() to create a new user's mailbox
(located in ./lib/cyradm.php).  This function uses "create" to create a
user INBOX which works fine.  The problem with this is that it that's
all it creates, and once a user has a INBOX autocreateinboxfolders
doesn't work.  (It's triggered my either a new email or first login to
an account without an INBOX).  Using cyradm "create" from the command
line the functionality it identical.  However, if you use "cm" instead
from cyradm it creates the INBOX and all subfolders set by
autocreateinboxfolders.  To fix this I changed "create" to "cm" in the
createmb() function in cyradm.php.  After testing it appears that makes
the create mailbox command fail (no errors!?)  In effect you could also
just disable the call to this function in newaccount.php and it would
have the same effect.  So since the INBOX doesn't now exist... and the
login info does... autocreateinboxfolders works as it's supposed to.
You just need to have it and "createonpost: 1" in your imapd.conf
file.
