Just best practice and not a must.
No, it simply breaks POP before SMTP. So the original order is correct. However, now that we see that the OP is using POP before SMTP, it is quite likely the POP before SMTP cache, rather than SMTP auth that is at issue with the spammers in question. Once SASL is up and running, it is wise to stop supporting the POP before SMTP crutch. -- Viktor.
