pop-before-smtp is a module that you install on your mail server so it *always* connects to pop server before connecting to the smtp server. Put it in Google and have a look.
AFAIK logged IPs have a timeout of a few minutes. Putting IPs in the database when users connect is not the best solution. If they go surfing before checking e-mail, IP entry will expire - and you are back where you started from.
