remove the
| /var/qmail/bin/splogger pop3d&
from the above script the logging is done in /var/qmail/supervise/qmail-pop3d/log/run
this is why you get a lot of splogger processes

remove
tcpserver 0 110 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup mail.nextstepcapital.net \
/bin/checkpassword /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir &
