yast2 and Maildir

goodmorning,
i have a mail server based on opensuse 10.1 with postfix and courier,
with maildir instead of mailbox.
when i add a user with yast2 it creates a mailbox in
/var/spool/mail/ale and it doesn't create the maildir in the user's
home, that i must create manually with: maildir Maildir
the output of procmail -v is also weird:

Locking strategies: dotlocking, fcntl(), flock()
Default rcfile: $HOME/.procmailrc
Your system mailbox: /var/spool/mail/ale

my system mailbox isn't in /var/spool/mail, 'cause i use Maildir, or
not?
how can i configure the system to use Maildirs instead of mailbox?
postfix and courier run perfectly with maildirs on my system and i
receve regulary the mails but i want to create users with only one
command and use .procmailrc with clamassassin to drop the virus in the
emails but now procmail deliver the filtred mails in the mbox!
thanks,
Ale.
