Since enabling syslog-logging and how syslog can be instructed to log messages
of your pop daemon is specific to the popper you are using, it's hard to guess
what might have gone wrong, without knowing at least what popper you are using.

In a stock installation of FreeBSD, my inetd.conf says:
#pop3 stream tcp nowait root /usr/local/libexec/popper popper
There is no pop3 daemon installed with the base system.
So, which one are you using?
