  Instead of  "pop-before-smtp"  you should see about smtp-authentication.

  For that you will likely need:
   - newer sendmail
   - SSL certificate for your machine
   - plain-text login under SSL wrapper
     (hashed passwords in database do require plaintext logins..)

  Likely you want to use  cyrus-sasl  tools.
