I'd say you're going the wrong way. Set up an IMAP server (dovecot's
simple). Create a user with no login (essentially, the shell is set
as /bin/false), and deliver its email to the IMAP server
(usually /var/mail/$USER/ or /home/$USER/Maildir/). Have the users set up
any email client at all to point to the server's IMAP port,logging in with
the shared username/password.
