Yes, the INDEX= path had to be put into a per-user directory it would work 
really badly. But still, I'd suggest using pop3_uidl_format=%f instead (or %g 
is the same thing). In virtual mailboxes the UIDs are a bit more likely to 
accidentally change, while %f/%g is based on the backend maildir filename which 
will never change even if you delete the virtual index files.
