The solution I found was to convert all mailboxes to Maildir. The Little Prince (http://www.asteroid-b612.org/software/) has a patch that works very well to add Maildir support to qpopper. Sendmail can deliver through procmail which needs just a few config changes (including one to the source) and it works fine. Then you can run Courier-IMAP on the same machine (and if you wish just accepting connections from your webmail box) for Squirrelmail. Courier-IMAP has a few issues with quotas (at least on FreeBSD), but never had any problems with mailbox corruption or performance. And you can have simultaneous POP3 and Webmail sessions - just only one of them will get the mail first. Michael Kolos
