One of the rust libraries used by py-cryptography needs patching to work with libressl. Easiest workaround is probably to pkg_add py3-cryptography, and use --system-site-packages with venv so that it can pick up packages from the main system. That said, for your stated goal, you're probably better off using LDAP or a SQL database to store your hashed passwords for email users, having your IMAP/POP3 server point at that for authentication, and providing a web app of some sort to allow users to change them (e.g. roundcube and snappymail webmail apps both have plugins that you can enable to allow this).
