Go ahead and change the line to read
auth stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd in.identd -i -o
I noticed it being the same as mine.... strange that Redhat would come
like that.... starting two in.identd processes...... also the -i flag
tells it to run out of inetd, see if that works for you, I hope it does,
I just did this out of my head, and never tested it...

just make sure your firewall isn't blocking port 110, that's the pop3
port, that's probably your problem... I believe....
