Details, please -- what do you mean by "cannot send or receive emails"? What
error messages do you get when you try to send a message composed in elm?
What goes in the qmail logs? What does the strace/truss look like at this
point?

Good.

Retrieving mail from another POP3 server is out of qmail's scope -- i.e.,
qmail is not involved in the process in any way. Forget qmail-popup,
checkpassword, and qmail-pop3d unless you want to run a POP3 server, not
client.

Again, what error message? Exact text of all error messages, please. I have
suspicions about what error you're seeing, but if you won't give us any hints,
I'll keep my guesses to myself. You may also want to try getmail instead of
fetchmail; you won't need to do delivery by SMTP injection.
