You can have a ~alias/.qmail-default entry with a program delivery that

For POP authentication, you need to write your own checkpassword that will
query mysql or radius. It's not too difficult, and if you can program in
perl, you should be able to code up a simple one in maybe an hour. When
you're satisfied with it, you could code it in C, or hire a programmer to
convert it to C for you, because a compiled C program would be faster and
smaller than a perl script, especially for large userbases.
