Uncomment the line for pop3 in /etc/inetd.conf

pop-3   stream  tcp     nowait  root    /usr/sbin/tcpd  ipop3d 

and make sure /etc/servives has;

pop-3           110/tcp                         # POP version 3
pop-3           110/udp

kill -HUP `pidof inetd`  <- note the questes use them, that send a
restart signal to inetd and makes it read the config file.

Or Read the top of the file its all explained there as well in rather
a different way.
