Exim can support that format.

Linuxconf's vdeliver is not needed; Exim can do the delivery itself.

Interested in what?
Anyways, have a look at the Exim FAQ section 315: C007, C009, C011, C015
and C016. Also, I have a sample config that you can slightly tweak to make
it work for you at
http://www.reedmedia.net/software/virtualmail-pop3d/mda/configure-for-exim-3.33
(I don't use ipop3d; I use vm-pop3d for the virtual domains email
hosting. I know that several people have tweaked vm-pop3d to work with
the Linuxconf format.)
