OK, yes, of course they're jibberish: they're binaries.

What we need to see is the tcpserver/qmail-pop3d/checkpasswd command
that's responsible to starting the pop service.

That's bad. Sounds like your startup script is hosed. Can you figure
out how it got that way? Can you recover a good version, e.g., from
backups?

If not, re-create it by downloading the copy linked on LWQ and re-add
the pop stuff.

first is pop tcpserver my pop3d in qmail startup 
script?
 
If so then both popup and pop3d are a bunch of 
control characters like
 
^^^
^H^E^By^^C^B^a
 
and so on (a bunch of jibberish i 
assume??)
 
in my smptd logs there is an error that says 
-
 
/etc/rc.d/init.d/qmail: -u507: command not 
found

Insufficient data.

Show us your pop tcpserver command. Do any errors get logged?
