as root:
service xinetd status
make sure it's running :-)
cat /etc/hosts.allow
probably doesn't allow pop, which it needs to if you're using xinetd or
inetd. Edit it to do so, many guides on web.
cat /etc/hosts.deny
probably denies everything which isn't specifically allowed.
drakfirewall
make sure the firewall isn't blocking POP3.
