Phillip,
You don't mention what your os is, but I would tend to believe
that your previous pop server (or earlier version of qpopper)
is still running.
Try doing a 'ps whatever' to find any other pop services or
a 'netstat whatever' to see if the server is listening on port 110.
Simply doing a HUP of inetd will not necessarily kill off an existing
process especially if it is running 'standalone'.
