I would recommend a postfix/cyrus setup.  Cyrus gives you a POP server as well 
as an IMAP server (of course you can disable the imap if desired).  I use the 
two with saslauth and phpgroupware for a complete mail solution.  I run on 
SuSE so I am not sure of any "minor details" that may slow down your 
implementation on Debian but there is a ton of documentation on the net for a 
postfix/cyrus install.

Here is a pretty good HOWTO:
http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/docs/HOWTO/other-formats/html_single/Postfix-Cyrus-Web-cyradm-HOWTO.html

Good Luck!
