You're limiting your options here by insisting on mbox format and
/var/spool/mail. Much of the better software intended to be used with qmail
uses Maildir format, and storage outside of /var/spool/mail .

I'd personally recommend vmailmgr for virtual domain setups. However, it does
necessitate Maildir storage (well, mostly) and at least one system account per
virtual domain.
