What about /etc/syslog.conf ??? Have you add the propper lines ?
This is the line I added to mine, (under NS 2.2)

	local0.notice;local0.debug	/usr/spool/mqueue/POPlog

Have o tried:

	telnet localhost 110 

The popper should show up and send a message to your terminal, you
can end the connection just typing 'quit' (no quotes) and ENTER.

Like this...
***********************************************************
~> telnet localhost 110
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
+OK UCB Pop server (version 1.7b1) at jessica.bvl.pt starting.
quit
+OK Pop server at jessica.bvl.pt signing off.
Connection closed by foreign host.
~>
***********************************************************

If the popper don't show up, try telnet to port 109, 109 is the pop2
port, maybe your /etc/services is not correct. (Or maybe is something
with NS 3.0, in that case, forget everything I said... I don't know
nothing about it).

: Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank's in advance.

I hope this helps...
