Sorry, I did not address your specific problem in the previous article.

pop really requires that the mailer that puts stuff into the 'maildrop'
is /usr/new/lib/mh/spop

When spop delivers a message to user foo, it will also create/update
an index file for the maildrop. popd will use the index file to find
the message boundaries in the maildrop.
