Not possible. POP3 gives you access only to your Inbox. To do what you want requires an Exchange account.

POP3/SMTP doesn't support Public Folders or pushing/exchanging calendar data
with your Exchange mailbox. IMAP would let you access public folders on an
exchange server*. Ideally if you where connecting to an Exchange 2003
server, you might want to find out if the site supports RPC/HTTPS
connections.

/neo

* only those folders that contain messages
 
The insight connector would allow special folders to keep their mapi
properties when you connect using IMAP, but I'm not sure if it also works on
public folders.
