The only way around system quotas is to have the files in 2 different
partitions, but that is a _huge_ performance hit.

Server mode makes user.pop handling a lot safer, but you need to ensure
that there is no direct access to the spool (eg, pine or mail) (Pine can
be configured to use pop in /etc/pine.conf or /etc/pine.conf.fixed), or
the direct access program.

As Chuck says, pop is not designed for a lot of this high-end stuff.
