No, it doesn't work that way. You must have the following TWO lines in your 
config:

set tls-server-cert-file=<cert file>
set tls-private-key-file=<private key file>

Someone else should be able to answer this. I personally run qpopper from 
xinetd for a variety of reasons.

The config file tells qpopper HOW to run the TLS protocol (set 
tls-support=<option>) but does not tell it what port to run it on.

Worse: Outlook (all versions I've tried, Express and otherwise) actually do 
support STLS for SMTP on port 25, but if you change to another port for 
SMTP (e.g. the SUBMISSION port, 587) it fails to negotiate STLS.

Fortunately, Eudora 5.1 does an outstanding job of implementing TLS. I've 
been pushing my customers toward Eudora ever since 5.1 came out. It works 
great, doesn't explode, and doesn't seem to have virus vulnerability issues.
