What mode are you using Qmail in, most likely Maildir mode, so you will have to create the Maildirs manually, so look at a program called maildirmake or man it even better.
Most likely you have also setup Qmail to deliver to a Maildir is the user's home directory so you may have to run maildirmake in the home directory of the user. You can add the Maildir into the /etc/skel and should be there everytime you add a user. Unless you are using something like ldap which would prolly help you direct mail to /var/spool/mail/user/Maildir. HTH. Cheers, Aly.
