Firstly I'd recommend postfix instead of sendmail however that is your 
choice and others will chime in to push exim or qmail or whatever else.

The feature you want is virtual domains. In sendmail you can set up a 
virtual user table to map email addresses to real system accounts.

If you want to properly integrate with this your POP3/IMAP service so that 
users login with their email address you will need to implement a local 
delivery agent that understands virtual users and a POP3/IMAP server that 
also does.
