Actually, I have no idea if the.plist works. I don't know if connections are failing because of a bad.plist, or if something else is causing the failure.
What worked fine was my xinetd config file for pop3 under OS 10.3, Panther Server.

In OSXS firewall settings are in ServerAdmin -- and the firewall is off.

Localhost connections do fail
So, what I'm unclear about is what process is blocking pop3. Is it launchd? Is it something to do with Apple's mail server (even though it's disabled)?
Since there's very little info on launchd anywhere, thought I'd ask this question here.
I'm trying to enable UW-IMAP ipo3d pop server on Tiger Server. I created a.plist file duplicating the info in my Panther xinetd.d/pop3 conf file (which worked fine) and placed it in/Library/LaunchAgents.
But, connections are refused on the pop3 port (110). I then fired up xinetd, with my pop config file in place, and also got pop3 connections refused.
Something in Tiger is blocking port 110 -- anyone know what it is (and no, I don't have Postfix running).
