What if one is using postfix but doesn't want to use/doesn't need maildir? (me, for example, in fact I even find annoying that /var/spool/mail/user is created by default).Making postfix add the pertinent dirs to /etc/skel is far more efficient than requiring yet another dependency and yet another package.
With the imap server I'm using I have to create a mailbox, otherwise the user won't get mail, full stop (in fact mailboxes are unrelated to users, so there can be users without a mailbox *and* mailboxes with no user). It's easy for me to automate mailbox creation when creating the user: just put it in a script run when you create a new user.
It should be equally easy to put a maildirmake in that script.
