Better: remove all files in Maildir/cur/ at the end (or start) of a
popsession. This should be quite trivial scripting, and achieves
exactly the desired effect.
Otherwise: patch qmail-pop3d to delete messages instead of moving them
to cur/.
And indeed: make sure your users know, or they will be surprised and
will complain.
