what could be proprietary in such a setup ?

do the equivalent. users in mysql, all sharing one system account,
courier-pop as popserver, one transport and one director in exim (and
that already includes fancy features such as forwarding, multi-drop
boxen, groupmails, everything. at least, everything i could thought
of.

i don't quite see the problem. take a piece of paper and a pen, throw
away the keyboard, and sketch your dream setup. then go back to the
keyboard and try to implement it. at least, that's what i think the
route should be - you seem to be going the opposite direction. i bet
you don't even know where your pen is ;>
