I installed the pop that comes with qmail, and found two things:
1) the authdaemond.plain wasn't running, or
2) the authdaemond.ldap was running, but I had no ldap daemon.
In either case, I editted the /usr/local/libexec/authlib/authdaemond script
so that it didn't try to run the ldap version, and my problems went away.
