Hi, I had the same problem when trying to start pop3, so I had to call a friend to setup it. This is my setup - qmail with vpopmail under tcpserver, run from rc.local (Slakware Linux):
 
echo "Starting tcpserver..."
env - PATH="/var/qmail/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/bin/ezmlm"

/usr/local/bin/tcpserver -x /etc/tcp.smtp.cdb -u1001 -g102 0 smtp /var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd &

/usr/local/bin/tcpserver -u1011 -g104 0 pop3 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup bates.eu.com /home/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir & (all in one line)
