I'm not sure I understand your question, but if I do understand it, there 
are 2 ways I've used in the past:

1) configure sendmail to use TLS/SSL, and to require authentication.  Give 
all your users passwords on the system.  This will require them to use mail 
clients that can support this, but fortunately, many do.

2) use the "pop relay" hack.  this uses a small daemon that reads the mail 
logs looking for the records that indicate a successful pop login.  when one 
is seen, open mail access to the associated IP address for a time.  various 
implementations of this code are floating around the net; a google search 
should find one.

Not sure what you mean.  squirrelmail is a free open source webmail client.
