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:

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.
