No, sending mail with POP is done with the "XTND XMIT" command.  It puts
the POP server into a mode that's basically like sendmail -f, (so it
gets the recipients from the headers).  I know that at least Eudora can
be configured to send mail in this way, and it's a good way for roaming
users to be able to send mail without reconfiguring their mail client
all the time.
