A hack like the way AutoTURN is implemented should do the trick. From
serialmail-0.75/AUTOTURN:

]3. Replace

]   
]   with

]      sh -c '
]        /var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd
]        cd /var/qmail/autoturn
]        exec setlock -nx $TCPREMOTEIP/seriallock \
]        maildirsmtp $TCPREMOTEIP autoturn-$TCPREMOTEIP- $TCPREMOTEIP AutoTURN
]      '
]
]   in the tcpserver invocation in your boot scripts.

You'd do something like this for your qmail-pop3d
startup. Unfortunately, at this point you only know the user's IP
address, not their username. If you have dynamic IP addresses, you'll
have to plus fetchmail in at a later point, e.g., with a wrapper
around qmail-pop3d.

If this is all over your head, you might want to consider hiring
someone to set this up for you. The details are beyond the scope of
this list.
