One fine day one the project leader asked that he we to share files over internet to employees, he was looking for some auth system where only existing employee can login. Since we have hosted mail server & no auth system in office the convenient way we found was to use POP3 Auth.

Following is the configuration I am sharing to use pop3 auth for web site running over apache.
Install Auth mechanism.
Refer

cpan
install Apache::AuthPOP3
install Net::POP3

Apache configuration

httpd.conf
ServerName userweb.linuxreaders.com
DocumentRoot /home/userweb
DirectoryIndex index.html
PerlModule Apache::AuthDBI
AuthName "Enter your Email ID & Password"
AuthType Basic
PerlAuthenHandler Apache::AuthPOP3
PerlSetVar        MailHost pop.linuxreaders.com
#PerlSetVar        UserMap pop3user1=>realname1,pop3user2=>realname2
Require valid-user
