This might also happen if the nameserver can't resolve the domain. 
Unfortunately we miss a better error message in this case.

You can disable this lookup by setting
    $CONF['emailcheck_resolve_domain']='NO';
in config.inc.php

If you use postfix (without maildrop etc.) to deliver the mail to the 
mailbox, postfix should create all needed directories. If it doesn't, 
check if it has write permissions and/or complains in the logfile.

If you use maildrop, you'll need some lines in maildroprc to create the 
directories. (Available on request.)

You can use $CONF['mailbox_postcreation_script']. Yes, it runs too often 
(on every mailbox creation instead of domain creation), but this 
shouldn't be a problem. ADDITIONS/postfixadmin-mailbox-postcreation.sh 
is an example script.
