And this is the command (with its arguments) that tcpd will run (if it is
okay with tcpd).
As you can see, you should not have "qpopper" as an argument for popper.
And make sure you have the correct path to popper.

I can see how this possible could work -- unless popper doesn't mind about
invalid argument.
Anyways, tcpd and inetd should complain (via log files) if there are
problems. (Also, be sure to tell inetd with a HUP when you update its
configs.)
