dovecot - Feb 2023 - creating a mailbox via imap

Hi,
?
is there any way with Dovecot to open an admin imap connection and create a
brand new mailbox?
With Cyrus imapd I can do this by connecting as the Cyrus admin user and then
create a folder "user/newuser at domain.tld".
?
Thanks
Gabriele

Wouldn't that be dependent on how Dovecot auth worker verifies a user exist
and is valid? Such as for one method, database queries. How would Dovecot know
what query to run to add another user to your database? Plus update any other
related DB tables needed for your custom setup? I would imagine too many edge
cases for Dovecot to worry about for creating accounts.
