Ok, but then how should we do ? Should we make a script for this, what
would be the equivalent to autocreate ? What do you think of this :

su - cyrus
cyradm --user cyrus --auth login localhost
(password)
cm user.USERNAME

Would this be the equivalent ?

But now I get "Unrecognized command" when I connect to the mailbox ?
(Before it was something like "Inbox does not exist")

If you want to ease the mailbox creation (you can think of it as "create 
mail user", as opposed to "system user"), there are some scripts 
available in the cyrus wiki [1]. I maintain and use imapcreate.pl [2] 
for instance. You'll probably want to add the mailbox creation to the 
user creation process.

Or, you can use the kolab-cyrus-imapd package with autocreate patch 
enabled (along with other).

You could just compile your own Cyrus with the auto-create patch applied.
