Can you look at the .lock files which are left behind, and
grep for log entries from the PID given in the file?

tpop3d should report any crash, with a message like

    quit: signal (signal number) post_fork = (0 or 1)

Turning on verbose logging might be helpful too.

Without more information I can't help much.
