Some "pop3" services work of the system accounts (/etc/passwd) while others are database driven and use a "seperate" system. The only thing you need to make sure is that the pop3 system your using works on the same level that your MTA does. qpopper, courier, ipop all seem to work off system user accounts while other things such as hive work off a database driven mail system.
