a. Modify the pop server to add the ip of the authenticating user to a pop-before-smtp database.
This is how it is setup. This remains active for predefined period of time before user is required to relogin to pop server again.

How does it happen with POP plugin? How would the 110 popserver (a cpanel stuff which gets overwritten if there are upgrades) know of a user connecting to GM POP plugin?

Open relay .... we wouldn't have been around for 5 years if we had that :=)

b. (Better option) Modify your smtp server to authenticate off the Gossamer Mail user database and only allow smtp auth.

Too involved as cPanel's Exim installation doesn't have Mysql lookup compiled in
