You can do it either way.  It's probably easiest to set up when  
creating a user's account on the mailstore.  But you can do it in  
various ways using Horde/IMP also.  2 ideas - write a maintenance task  
that does this on the first login, or put the code in IMP's postlogin  
hook (although this will require the need to do this check everytime  
the user logs in, which isn't very resource-friendly).  Search the  
mailing lists - I'm sure this has been discussed many times before.
