I don't know if it's the line wrap that did it, but your exec line is
wrong in both scripts if I'm not getting line wrap. The "WRONG SCRIPT"
is using syslog logging, I'm not sure about the | at the end of the other

#!/bin/sh
exec /usr/local/bin/tcpserver -v -R 0 pop3 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup
mail.tibonline.net /bin/checkpassword /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir 2>&1
