Not really sure what some of the stuff is that you're trying to do with your
tcpserver config, but try this out:
#!/bin/bash
/usr/local/bin/tcpserver -v -x /etc/tcpcontrol/pop-3.cdb -R 0 pop3 \
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup worldvibe.org /path_to/checkvpw \
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir 2>&1
First grep /etc/services or /etc/protocols for pop, and if your pop3 line is
actually pop-3, change it at the end of line 2. then, replace path_to at the
end of line 3 with your path to checkvpw. Finally, you have to be using a
Maildir format mailbox in the home directory that checkvpw will point to.
Give all this a whirl, and let me know if it still doesn't work.
