Maria,
according to 'man qmail-pop3d', it requires maildirname as the argument.
And I'm not sure why you try to run qmail-pop3d from command line...
qmail-pop3d is usually invoked from inetd, with a line like this:
pop3 stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/qmail-popup qmail-popup
your.server.name /usr/bin/checkpassword /usr/sbin/qmail-pop3d Maildir
(all in _one_ line).
