Try running pop with tcpserver and not inet. Here is a sample
startup line:

HOSTNAME=`hostname`

    env - PATH="/var/qmail/bin:/usr/local/bin" \
    tcpserver -H -R -l$HOSTNAME -c100 0 110 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup \
    $HOSTNAME \
    /home/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir &
