Sendmail is for smtp - it's an MTA not an MUA (mail transport agent as
opposed to a mail user agent)

generally, you can check mail locally by logging in directly to the computer
and typing "mail"

each 'local' user is an account though you can create 'pop accounts' or as
close to one by creating a user whose shell is like /bin/false.

If you want to run a pop server, you need to install a daemon to handle
that - Redhat supplies a number of them but most obvious is 'imap'
