nupop does UIDL and STAT caching (using Berkeley DB) already so it would
probably be easy to add that feature.
http://nupop.nuvox.net/
http://pulsar.sourceforge.net/ has some interesting features -- including
a configuration file and already does some caching. It would probably be
easy to add that feature to it too.
Maybe ask those two pop3d programmers about it.
(I maintain vm-pop3d. It doesn't support that. I have thought about it
before, but I am more concerned with users that continue to leave mail on
server. I am more interested in a non-RFC option so all RETReived mail is
DELEted automatically.)
