We use a centralized account management system to create user accounts
on our systems. We would like to be able to use it to create Cyrus
mailboxes. Is there any way to create a user INBOX from a
noninteractive process running as "root" or "cyrus" (without putting an
admin password in a file)? We are running Cyrus v2.3.1.
The autocreatequota option is a possibility, but there would be fewer
support calls if we could create the inboxes for them.
We create mailboxes during account creation time from a perl script which
connects to the imap server as the admin user (cyrus). This requires
storing the password for the admin user in our script's config file, of
course.
