Well, as qmail docs state, you should use maildir in order to use qpop3d. 
If is pop-only account, you may use mailidir (after setting it up exactly
as it described in the docs). If you want user to be able to access the
same mailbox, you should take mail reader that understands it.
Also, don't forget checkpassword and patches for it to support PAM.
Everything is mentioned on Qmail's page. 
Also, there is mention on Qmail's page (http://www.linux.org.il/qmail/)
about how to make qpopper work with qmail's mailboxes - even SRPM link is
there.
