When I set up my own mailsystem (using postfix, courier-imap and
maildirs) some time ago, I used the guide given at:
<http://gentoo-wiki.com/ HOWTO_Email...k_
Part_2>
And even though this guide is created for Gentoo, most of it works for
Debian as well...
In this guide the command: 'maildirmake ~/Maildir/' (changed for your
choice of maildir) is used to create a maildir in your
/home/<your_username>/Maildir directory.
