at the moment i'm using cucipop, but am quite interested in moving to qpopper. is
there anyway that i can configure qpopper to collect mail from both the mbox and
maildir locations?

there are several tools around and all of the are working quite well.
take a tool witch takes care of the "Status: " header.
also some "maildir-popper" are fetching all mails from disk on a "LIST-command"
which isnt really good for performance.
make some performance-tests to find a suitable popper...
