I am using qmail-pop3d with vpopmail, and courier-imap only for our
squirrelmail users. The pop3 install with courier-imap is optional.
Here is how I'm starting the pop3 daemon:
env - PATH="/var/qmail/bin:/usr/local/bin" \
tcpserver -H -R 0 pop3 \
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup hostname.domain.net \
/var/qmail/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir &
Just replace hostname.domain.net with your info. This is from my
/etc/rc.d/init.d/qmail-pop3 file. Here are the full contents:
---start snippit---
#!/bin/sh
PATH=/var/qmail/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin
export PATH
case "$1" in
start)
echo -n "Starting pop3 service: svscan"
env - PATH="/var/qmail/bin:/usr/local/bin" \
tcpserver -H -R 0 pop3 \
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup hostname.domain.net \
/var/qmail/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir &
;;
stop)
;;
*)
echo "Usage: $0 {start|stop}"
exit 1
;;
esac
exit 0
----end snippit-----

If you are using vpopmail then shouldn't you be using courier-imap to
provide POP3/IMAP service? I don't think qmail-pop3d works with
vpopmail? (someone correct me if Im wrong).
