Anything's possible, but the standard qmail-pop setup, with the
standard checkpassword does not support this.

Essentially, checkpassword and friends require a separate user in
/etc/passwd per Maildir.

Alternative checkpassword programs allow greater flexibility and may
possibly support what you want. Details on www.qmail.org (at 11).

A simple solution is to create a separate user who effective has a
$HOME/Maildir that points to (and has permissions to access)
/usr/home/drew/Maildir2. This of course doesn't scale nicely.


Regards.
