If you want to use pop3, you might need to mark mails instead of moving them to another box. I don't think pop3 has any concept of multiple mailboxes.

or he can create specific users (such as user-junk) whose mail location points to the Junk folder...
maybe a better solution would to provide a web interface that allows "releasing" false positives (which would then be moved to the Inbox) and "confirming" spam. Users can eaisly spot junk and confirm it without downloading it.

You have to hack pop3 to walk the aditional folders. I had to do that to allow the pop3 users to grab their adsl invoices (that are put on a dedicated folder throught imap by the isp services).
Timo has a solution on the making I think.
