POP is used only to get the mail the send is another story.
I think that popclient comes with slackware. To get the mail from the
server try something like:
popclient -3 -o /usr/spool/mail/username -u username -p 'password' server
If it doesn't works check with the sys. admins of the server.
The other way around it depends on what mail
transport(sendmail,sendmail+IDA,smail) and or mail agent(pine,elm) you are
using. If it is sendmail then edit the /etc/sendmail.cf, search for DS
and add the server/relay name after it (DSsmtp:server.blabla.il). You may
want also to masquerade as the server so put the servername after the DM
(DMserver.blabla.il).
If you are using pine then put in the .pinerc:
user-domain=server.blabla.il
use-only-domain-name=server.blabla.il
The idea is to strip the hostname from the return address. The actual
server/relay/mail hub name depends on how the sendmail is setup on the
server. If you havn't changed the sendmail.cf than at least you can send
the mail directly to the server (not via the local sendmail) by adding
"smtp-server=server.blabla.il".
Also you will have to handle the return address to make it appear like is
comming from the server/relay in whatever else you are using:
Netscape,Mosaic,xrn,etc.
Everything can be handled, probably, directly in the sendmail itself but
this is getting too complex...

See the "Linux Network Administrators Guide" by Olaf Kirch on any
sunsite.unc.edu mirror and the Sendmail manual, don't remember the
authors (Paul Vixie ?)
