Why it runs as vpopmail? It should run as root as well. Here is a sample
startup script:
$ /var/qmail/
>>Starting with svscan with something like this in

>>0 pop-3 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup $HOSTNAME \
>>/home/vpopmail
One more thing, why you wanted to check against tcp.smtp.cdb for pop3d?
It just causes unnecessary overhead since pop3d requires authentication.

You may add a user "devnull" to vpopmail and set
/var/qmail/control/doublebounceto to "devnull", then in
~vpopmail/domains/yourdomain.com/devnull/.qm

Sorry, I meant "cause a double bounce" given user "devnull" exists.
