Nope, when doing a POP before SMTP connection it looks for authenticated
requests and add's the IP address you authenticated from to the list of IP's
that are able to send using the SMTP server. I think that what you are
referring to would not be POP before SMTP but rather allowing relaying based
on domain. In which case I don't think this would break that as it is the
SMTP server that does the reverse lookup to verify at that point and not the
POP3 server.
