So I guess it is not trivial to sort again all the mails and

Determining the intended recipient of a specific *copy* of an e-mail
(info contained in the envelope) from that copy *after* "final" delivery
(at the ISP, no more envelope, info *possibly* contained in pseudo
headers of varying name and reliability) is *most definitely*
nontrivial, and (used to be?) known as a prime cause of mail loops.
If you don't know *exactly* what you're doing, maintain your myriad of
users/mailboxes *both* at the ISP and on your internal servers and put
the "mails in ISP mailbox X *all* go into internal mailbox Y, and
nowhere else!" relations "hardcoded" into your retrieval tool's config.

That's exactly why I recommended to use smtp relay. Maintaining two
user's database without any password sync mechanism available it's
asking for trouble. Well, with under 10 user you can manage...
As a bonus, you have a near "real mail system" and you eventually learn
to manage it :)
