Interesting.

So if the product X (whose larger purpose is unrelated to POP serving)
_depends_on_ the modified GPLed POP server Y (i.e. cannot perform its
larger function without the presence of the modified Y), then you say
X *could* be held to be a derivative of Y? But the fact that X talks
to Y through modified-POP rather than linking to it discourages that
interpretation?
