If it can only see the INBOX then if they use something (procmail or SM) which moves stuff out of that folder then you are correct that the moves mail becomes invisible. If one of your user's will be using a pop client which can see only the INBOX then you need to educate them not to create SM folders. They can use SM to view and optionally delete the mail, but not move it. The mail they sent out via the web would be the major problem I think, since its moved to a sent folder which would be invisible. They could send a blind carbon copy to themselves or just move messages from the sent folder to the inbox.
