I'd suggest this instead:
# default: on
# Pop3 Service
service pop3
{
flags = REUSE
socket_type = stream
wait = no
user = root
server = /usr/local/lib/popper
server_args = qpopper -s
disable = no
}
That way, you can manage it with chkconfig:
# chkconfig --list pop3
# chkconfig pop3 on
# chkconfig pop3 off

It should already be there under RH7--you might want to double-check
it.
