Sendmail will do STARTTLS if both sides support it, and you can even configure things to not permit plain text authentication (AUTH LOGIN)
unless TLS/SSL has been negotiated.
is there a way to do something similar with POP so it does not handle non-SSL negotiated sessions?
I'm not sure about POP, but yes for IMAP; see /usr/ports/mail/imap-uw, which does include a POP3 server as well.
