two different suggestions:

1) Switch to SMTP-AUTH for sending. It's more work to support (teaching
   your users how to configure their clients, etc) but more secure and
   reliable in the long run.

2) If you must use "pop before smtp" use DRAC rather than maillog
   watchers (see: http://mail.cc.umanitoba.ca/drac/index.html ).
   We used DRAC for several years before switching to SMTP-AUTH.
   Particularly if you need to support IMAP clients, DRAC is far
   superior to maillog watchers, altho it is a bit of work to integrate
   into your pop3d & imapd daemons.
