I think the reason why it was even connecting and showing up in netstat
-ta printout was because I had ipop3d running through inetd.conf.

I want popper to run in server mode.  So it should be an always running
process, right? Like httpd.  When I do popper -s nothing seems to happen.

I also commented the ipop3d from inetd.conf and now pop3 isn't open, so
it wasn't popper that was working before.  So, how do I even get popper
started?
