 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?

1) please wrap your lines.
2) No.  QPopper reads system 7 mailboxes.

Okay, this is tiny, in the greater view.

Procmail.

You don't actually offer what problems you are seeing?
"performance problems" is very vague.  I've dealt with Qpopper
on machines with several thousand users on it, running the monolithic
mailbox format.  It can work.  (don't use cheap slow IDE disks)..
