Excuse me. I must correct myself. I do create each user as a standard  
unix user, _but_ I do not give them a standard home dir or a shell.  
For each domain, I create a directory, like thus…

/sites/example/


…and then create a "home" directory inside there…

/sites/example/home/


…and then each user's home within there…

/sites/example/home/user


So, the create command would be:

sudo /usr/sbin/adduser -d /sites/example/home/username/ -s /bin/false  
-c "John Doe" jdoe_example


This gives them the ability to have mail and a standard unix password  
and leaves /home/ with only admins (people with shell access).
