What is the output of `ps auxw | grep pop3'?
What is the output of `cd /var/qmail/supervise && svstat qmail-smtpd'?

Outlook Expectless sucks butt cheek. Telnet to port 110 and do:
USER yourusername
PASS yourpassword
And give us the error message. Then give us `ls -l ~/* | grep Maildir
--after-context=4' when logged in as yourself. Then give us `ls -l
~/.. | grep yourusername'

Depends. Is multilog running as part of the sv scripts in
pop3d/log/run? This should appear in `ps auxw | grep pop3'.
