Stranger and stranger ;)
There is nothing to 'start' the pop server loads on demand, lets try
something basic...
telnet into your machine, then try talking to the pop server directly
telnet localhost 110
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
+OK QPOP (version X.XX) at somedomain starting.
USER admin
+OK Password required for admin.
PASS *****
+OK admin has 0 messages (0 octets).
LIST
+OK 0 messages (0 octets)
QUIT
if it does that much it's mostly working, if you get some other error you
will have to go pokeing around a bit....
The pop server should be named in.qpopper btw, make sure it exists
somewhere ...
