I dared to remove qpopper and instal tpop3d.

I have stolen that and it works for me.

'qlist tpop3d' shows '/etc/init.d/tpop3d' so I set a symlink from
runlevels/default to that. I know, I know there is a Gentoo command to
do that but I didn't remember. Setting the symlink was the easy way. ;)

Thanks once more.
