You can this with qpopper (there is a patch for it on freshmeat, search
for exim), but since qpopper has severe security flaw, I
would not use it.
You could use qmail-pop3d, with a suitable checkpassword-module. There are
a lot of checkpassword-implementation that support everything from a mysql
db to flat files.
This means that you'll have to use maildir, though.
I use an installation of qmail-pop3d with a virtual exim implementation.
Other than that, cucipop (IIRC) has a patch to use PAM for
authentication. That opens for a lot of alternatives.
