Hypothetical situation: Let's say you wanted to write your own server written in PHP for simple use (POP3, IMAP4, SMTP, etc.). What would be the easiest way of doing so such that it can still run on a shared server (meaning you can't open ports or start your own daemons)?

My thoughts:

Run the script as the index script on a dedicated domain or subdomain (latter is free) and have clients point to that (sub)domain and port 80.
That's it. A hard question.

Ideas?
