I just stumbled across this, thanks to a message on the Postfix
mailing list:

    http://perdition.sourceforge.net/

>From the web page:

"Perdition is allows users to connect to a content-free POP3 or IMAP4
server that will redirect them to their real POP3 or IMAP4 server.
This enables mail retrieval for a domain to be split across multiple
backend servers on a per user basis. This can also be used to as a
POP3 or IMAP4 proxy especially in firewall applications.  Perdition
supports arbitrary library based map access to determine the server
for a user. POSIX Regular Expression, GDBM, MySQL and PostgreSQL
libraries ship with the distribution."

Does anyone have any experience with this?
