Nope.
postfix or Qmail replaces sendmail.
SMTP is the protocol used by postfix, Qmail or sendmail.
POP is a separate protocol, which allows transfer of mail data to clients
computer independent of smtp. The popd to run the server side of this
protocol is in the imap package, the client side is in netscape, outlook,
eudora, pegasus, etc.
Hope this helps.
