Hmm, http://www.arda.homeunix.net/store/

"courierpassd is a utility for changing a user's password from across a 
network. It uses the same protocol as poppassd to obtain user IDs and 
passwords. I use this program to allow my mail users to change their own 
passwords on my mail server from squirrelmail, the webmail application I 
use."

There are some hits in Google for poppassd, e.g.

http://netwinsite.com/poppassd/
http://freshmeat.net/projects/poppassd-ceti/

BTW: The protocol looks very simple.
