The pop3 Setup is a typical single-user, with password etc. Historically,
muLinux born as floppy for personal-use-only. Il Linux, the right
alternative is "fetchmail": fetchmail use a database for account; it can deliver
to local mailboxes and can interface to "procmail", in order to activate
mail filtering, answering machines, etc.
You have fetchmail and procmail in the SRV addon, but no configuration
is provided, in the perfect Linux style.

A part from setup/pop3, the "mutt" mailer can be configured in order to
fetch emails on a per-user basis.
