Probably, yes; depends on your OS. On my FreeBSD box it would be
"root:wheel". But I suspect on Linux the group is "root" too. Besides,
should make no difference, really, as long as UID is 0. Did you set it chmod
600? (or 400 even). And you did compile
using --with-openssl=/usr/local/openssl (substitute your own path, of
course), right?

And do you have this in your config file?

set tls-support = stls
set tls-server-cert-file = /etc/mail/certs/pop3scert.pem

(Your debug-info does indicate that "tls-server-cert-file" was indeed set,
as pop_tls_openssl.c, line 352 prints this variable). And did you use the -f
config-file-path command-line option to tell Qpopper to read the
configuration file?

I really suspect there is either something not right with your pem file, or
qpopper is unable to find (parts of) your OpenSSL environment (or, if you
did not specified your openssl path, finds an older version of OpenSSL,
perhaps?)
