That's very easy, I use Drac (http://mail.cc.umanitoba.ca/drac/) and
Qpopper (http://www.eudora.com/qpopper/) which supports Drac.

You don't have to recompile exim just add a rule:

  accept  hosts      = net32-dbm;/etc/mail/dracd.db


to your acl_check_rcpt rules.

Note that you have to tell Drac to use hash maps, CIDR notation and null
terminated keys, add -DREQ_HASH -DCIDR_KEY -DTERM_KD to the DEFS
parameter in your Drac Makefile. (After recompiling drac delete your
dracd.db file, otherwise it won't restart.)

Compile Qpopper with --enable-drac and your set to go.

Note that the exim documentation mentions whoson
(http://whoson.sourceforge.net/) which does something similar as drac,
but I have no experience with it.

You may also wish to use smtp authentication, look into cyrus-sasl
(http://asg.web.cmu.edu/sasl/). I already used pop-before-smtp long
before smtp auth was around and I keep it still for compatibility, but I
use smtp auth also. For more info on my setup, check http://inedita.com/utils/mta.html.
