As Lars says - (POP or SMTP) will just identify traffic on ports 25 and 110, in order to do further you need protocol 
inspection of all traffic. Running snort over a RSPAN port of your internet VLAN might be able to perform this kind 
of inspection for you... you would probably have to write your own snort rule for this.

Alternately, Bro will create an smtp.log out of the box where it not only finds SMTP on any port, but it logs a number 
of attributes of email being sent.  http://www.bro-ids.org
