Disabling POP3 service on Sendmail

Hi,

I wish to disable POP3 services in sendmail and just use IMAP. I am running: Version 8.13.4. How do I go about doing this?

According to the config file the Cyrus IMAP/POP3 server is being used so I am not sure how to go about configuring the config file to use only IMAP.
