Well I guess it depends on what your hash scheme is. If you just want it so
that not all of your users are in the same directory, a common way of doing
this is to use the first letter to split it up.
Something like
file = /var/spool/mail/${domain}/${lc:${length_1:${local_part}}/${local_part}}
in your local_delivery transport should work, so mail for
user@??? would be stored in:
/var/spool/mail/example.com/u/user
Is that the kind of thing you're looking for?

That's a question for the authors of whatever pop3d packages you're looking
at. Although anything's possible if you're willing to modify the code.
