Use fetchmail to retrieve the mail from the pop account, and redeliver it to RT.
Fetchmail can be found at http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/fetchmail/

Your fetchmailrc file should have something like
poll pop.example.com
proto POP3
username rt password mysecret
mda "/usr/local/rt2/bin/rt-mailgate --queue rt --action correspond
poll pop.example.com
proto POP3
username rt-comment password mysecret
mda "/usr/local/rt2/bin/rt-mailgate --queue rt --action comment
