1. Are the users going to give you their passwords, or you already have
those in 'clear'? You need those to enable you login to the remote
boxes, yes?
2. If you have (1), then, what problems do you have with fetchmail, with
the "LDA" option? I believe you already read the man page anyway.

3. What is your actual challenge? How many users? What problem are you
facing?
