It may not be running as a daemon, but could run from inetd/xinetd or
similar.

You need a daemon running, or a way to launch it such as inetd/xinetd.

106 tcp

You may not need it if you run it over localhost and your iptables allows
all localhost connections.  But you will need to put it in your tcp wrappers
(e.g. hosts.allow) setup if you run tcp wrappers.  Mine (over localhost or
loopback interface) looks like this:

poppassd : 127.0.0.1 : allow

If you post your OS version, maybe we could provide more specific information
to help.
