Thank you, Neil, for the pointer, it eventually led to a
solution: poprelayd working with qpopper logging logins. If anyone's
interested in a blow-by-blow description of the hairy process, contact me
by email. (I *will* eventually get over the sore throat from yelling at
micro$oft products...)

FWIW, I think I'd have had a lot less trouble if qpopper and poprelayd were
conspicuously mentioned somewhere in the documentation - such as the README
or INSTALL files, or on the virtual hosting page: It seems like these are
pretty important parts of a virtual hosting setup.

FYI, here's the sub scanaddr() I'm using (successfully) in poprelayd:

# for qpopper 4.0.3
# By Fred Koschara <wfredk@fkeinternet.com>
# Based on the one by Tobias Barth <tobi@web-arts.de>
# Based on the one by Jan Gruber (jgruber@rz.htwk-leipzig.de)
#
sub scanaddr ($) {
my @addrs; # avoid hangs
my $s = $_[0];
my $i = index ($s,'popper');
undef @addrs;
if ($i >= 0)
{
($s =~ /.*?popper.*?POP login.*?(\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3})/)
&& (push (@addrs,$1));
}
return @addrs;
}
