I don't think so, but then I'm not a developer easier, just a user and admin.

Would this work?

(1) set-up one account on the server which is the primary one (possibly one 
where no-one has access to and which serves as an archive/record tracking one)
(2) for each user create their own accounts as usual
(3) make the server duplicate emails coming to primary account for each shared 
user (sieve/postfix rule/...)
(4) each user will then have the same view, but their own read status, can use 
whatever client they want (kmail preferred of course)
(5) one important bit: Everyone should use the same from address and should 
bcc to the same address, thus everyone else would magically see the replies as 
if coming from oneself.

Is this idea too crazy or would that be doable for you?

Cheers
