fetchmail suitable for this task?

Hi all.

I'm currently building my own webmail server but I will need to collect my mail from several different account scattered around the 'Net.

I know fetchmail can do this. The problem I have is that my main POP3 mailbox at my ISP lumps all users' e-mails into one box.

This means that e-mails to joe1@domain.net, bob@domain.net, sarah@domain.net etc are all thrown into joe@domain.net mailbox.

Is this what is referred to as a multidrop mailbox? What is the best way of attacking this problem so that when I collect mail, I can configure bob's mail to go to bob's QMail maildir instead of to joe's?

TIA.
-DT
