qmail-pop3d IS supposed to run as root. From LWQ:
tcpserver -v -R 0 pop3 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup FQDN \
/bin/checkpassword /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir 2>&1 | \
/var/qmail/bin/splogger pop3d &
or... (inetd)
pop3 stream tcp nowait root /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup qmail-popup
hostname.domain /bin/checkpassword /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir
