I've got an experimental pop3 server that works via
qmail-popup/checkpassword on a mailbox in the users home directory.
It writes in-situ and relies only qmail-local delivering (for locking
purposes).
But I think the chances of releasing it are a bit low as the cost/benefit
isn't there as most people retain mailbox because they have a UA such as
elm/pine that works on it.
Regards.
