gnu-pop3d is no longer being maintained ... I suggest you download Jeff
Reed's vm-pop3d, which is heavily based on gnu-pop3d.  Or if it is a lan you
can just use ipop3d from the uw-imapd rpm

You might want to have these people set up .fetchmailrcs in their homedirs
and have a cronjob running that executes each fetchmailrc in turn.

Have them forward their hotmail / yahoo account to the local accounts.

Basically tho', without passwords you are screwed.  Especially if you dont
control the remote server(s) those accounts are hosted on.
