Generally speaking, pop-before-smtp was (and is) a big hack. The right answer is to set up SMTP-Auth.
Sadly, SMTP auth on Postfix _feels_ like an even bigger hack, due to the joy that is SASL. It does work well once you get it setup, but man it's a pain.

Remember that you're going to need to compile Postfix with SASL support. The easiest way I've found to build my nice install is to grab the Postfix SRPM, edit the .spec appropriately, and then rebuild the RPM for your particular setup.
