What about us folks that use IMP as an interface to the Cyrus IMAP
server, with which there are no system accounts and therefore no
homedirs.

Actually, I was thinking of incorporating Dietmar Rieder's
php-mailsettings program ( ftp://ftp.hr.vc-graz.ac.at/cyrus-tools/ ) in
to my IMP installation, though honestly, php-mailsettings lacks the
option to use homedirs, so either way, yr lacking...unless one of the
two were hacked to be multi-purpose.
