Yes, I did it myself.  Took me about 3.5 months to build the
entire
system.  The provisioning system took me about a week or so
to write.

Actually, for me, the maildir creation was a 2 liner in the
provisioning scripts.  Since I had a shared data store, I
just mounted
the spool directory on the provisioning server and created
them
