Forgot: re your request for a "better POP3 daemon", you may want to look at 
dovecot, which is now included as an option with Fedora. I think it's 
fairly young, and so may or may not be up to the task, but the project home 
page says it has been written with security and speed in mind, and it's 
probably safe to try it (and you might like it).
