While I can't speak for him, I think they have a team of people who are accessing / handling the same mailbox, but want any email they send to have their personal "From" address without having to change this continiously.

If that's all they want, then just assign multiple logins to the same mailbox. For example, using userdb:

a@example.com<tab>home=/path/to/home|uid=123|gid=123|systempw=xxxxx b@example.com<tab>home=/path/to/home|uid=123|gid=123|systempw=yyyyy

Then you can login as either a@example.com or b@example.com, in which case that's the address for outgoing mail (unless you've overridden it using sqwebmail preferences), but still have the same inbox.

However, if you also want to have incoming mail for a@example.com and b@example.com to be handled as separate mailboxes (private to those users), whilst these two users can both simultaneously access the mailbox for in@example.com, then you definitely need virtual shared folders.
