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.
