Well, but it's the most elegant one (that is i think so ;-)), as it works
without installing additional software or hacking the sendmail configuration.
At least if the access.db-Feature is already installed...
And it works with the current version of popa3d.

Yes, i played around with some parameters, that of course must not
neccessarily be changed for my patch. I set these back to the
original values and moved the #define SMTP_AFTER_POP to the
suggested place.
Thanks for listening ;-)
