Creating mailboxes

So I have this particularly stupid newbie question but don't seem to 
have a good answer yet:

I've found that I have to create the mailboxes for my users before they 
can receive email.   However, to create the mailboxes, I've had to log 
into cyradm and then run the "cm user.username" to make them.

This is fine, except that I want to script this process.  I'm sure other 
people have done it.  We found a script that will do this, but we have 
to put a username and password for one of the cyrus admins in it, which 
makes the unix people around here uncomfortable.   Other than using 
Kerberose for an authentication method to get into cyradm, is there any 
other way to create mailboxes?

Thanks
David
