I was kinda vague as well. I posted the same question in a couple of other places. It looks like there's interest and I'm getting ready to release the util. Thus, you'll get a better explanation soon. Until it's cleaned up and released, here's the readme for the curious: http://www.networkoftheapes.net/readme_xmail2apache.txt
With this util and a pointer index.php file, I managed to get IlohaMail using POP3 set up for users in under 2 minutes. From what I've seen and tried, this is the fastest webmail solution for XMail. I plan to release a XMail/IlohaMail mini-howto with the util. Remember Sönke, a skeptical mind is a sharpened mind ;) I appreciate the response.
