Well, I dunno how it is in redhat, but that essentially means inetd is
not running or the path is wrong. Either way , you could just run
/etc/rc.d/init.d/inetd restart
to restart inetd.

Firstly, you should have the POP3 server installed, which doesn't seem
the case with you. You don't seem to have a pop3 server
installed. Check whether you have pop3 server installed by doing a
rpm -qa | grep imapd
If you get that imapd is installed, then I am wrong. else you will
have to install the imapd package which has the pop3 server.

After installing imapd or any pop3 server ( qpopper is another pop3
server ), then there should be a similar to this in your
/etc/inetd.conf
pop3 stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd /usr/sbin/in.ipop3d
The last name changes to the pop3 server
which is actually modified autmotically when you install the imapd
package.
Hope that helps.
