You can also try qpopper which is in the ports collection and is
extremely easy and with that you would create users with 'adduser'.

#That isn't quite correct. Sendmail is just a mail transfer agent, and
#doesn't care where the mail ends up, or if local mail has a system account
#(when configured for such). For local mail, sendmail simply passes it off
#to the system's local mailer, which typically saves it in
#/var/mail/{username}. You're completely free to replace the default
#localer mailer with something else that doesn't require system accounts,
#for example, I believe the Cyrus POP/IMAP daemon includes a local mailer
#that does this with sendmail. The only caveat is that if you change the
#default mailbox, your POP/IMAP daemon needs to know about the new
#location, too.
