The mail client will create them, depending from it's configuration or standard behaviour (MUAs differ in this regard). Although making use of the autocreate patches in the Cyrus-IMAPd of Fedora you can let Cyrus-IMAPd automatically create specific folders. Please see http://email.uoa.gr/projects/cyrus/autocreate/ You don't have to apply these patches but to configure their use. On the other hand, an INBOX must be there in any case. You must create the mailbox by hand using cyradm. (You could too use the autocreate mechanism for that, but be very very careful then, to no let each spam mail to non existing accounts create new INBOXes!) Be aware that Cyrus-IMAPd does not use /var/spool/mail for mail storage and thus /var/spool/mail/<user> is the mbox used by other mail applications. All mail has to go instead to /var/spool/imap/...
