You're partly right. Read 'man qmail-pop3d' again ;)
And also try 'man maildir' ....
qmail at large supports Maildir as well as Mailbox type deliveries, as well
as some other less frequently used formats.
qmail-pop3d on the other hand ONLY supports Maildir for remote retrieval
with POP3.
With regards to Maildir vs. Mailbox configuration, try lwq ....
