Joe,

Ouch - you are right!  I think I have become so accustomed to the
installation process which I follow that I forgot when typing this email
that I do actually install the qpopper package from packages.  IT IS NOT
THERE BY DEFAULT, only by my habit :)

Interestingly, the standard /etc/inetd.conf file already includes a
sample entry for pop3 which refers "/usr/local/libexec/popper", which
matches with how the qpopper package installs.

So, my apologies to those whom I have mislead.  If you want qpopper,
then install the package during system installation, or get the port
like so:
# cd /usr/ports/mail/qpopper
# make install

Apologies,
Patrick.
