Here is tpopd.config, when I use the first listen line the problem 
appears, when I use the second, it doesn't. Somehow tpop3d (or the 
system libraries) behave(s) differently in both cases.

#listen-address: 192.168.1.91:110(rna.nl)
listen-address: 0.0.0.0
mailbox: bsd:/var/mail/$(user)
auth-passwd-enable: yes
auth-passwd-mail-group: mail

No. Those that succeed are logged, the others fail at the socket level, 
I think. Maybe tpop3d has more to do between the initial connect and the 
fork of the child to handle when I set an explicit listen-address and in 
between there is no one listening so the client fails immediately?
