Currently, we used a patched qpopper that looks up users in a seperate file, delivering into a shared pop directory. Working, but not yet under customer pressure is a similar scheme with domains (user has user@domain as pop username, it will be delivered to somepath/domain/user). This includes a small web interface so that domain owners can admin their POP accounts for themselves. Not yet userfriendly 8-} Based on smail, qpopper (secure/patched 2.4b1) and some handmade perl.
