Thierry,

It seems to me that when I had this problem, I changed the permissions 
on the folder /var/spool/mailbox/xxx/User_Name/ to 777 (where xxx is 
the number of the mailbox directory, see the user form in post.office 
to learn the number for each user). Next I made sure that "auto-create" 
was turned on by running config.pl in the terminal. Lastly, I logged 
into squirrelmail as that user.

Unless I'm all wet, I think that permitted squirrelmail to make the 
folders it wanted to.

let me know if this works,
