Error when attempting to start inetd

Thanks, putting -D in the arguments list fixed the problem.  However, it 
does not let me access the pop3 server or the imap server.  Here is what my 
output looks like:
$ telnet localhost 110
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to FAMILYROOM.
Escape character is '^]'.
Connection closed by foreign host.

The same happens for imap.

I have included "pop3  stream  tcp  nowait  root   /usr/sbin/uw-ipop3d" and 
"imap  stream  tcp  nowait  root   /usr/sbin/uw-imapd" in the inetd.conf 
file and everything else appears to have been setup correctly.

The inetd.log file has just this to say on the problem:
someone wants pop3
accept, ctrl 3
+ Closing from 22
2820 execl /usr/sbin/uw-ipop3d
2820 reaped, status 0x3500
someone wants imap
accept, ctrl 3
+ Closing from 22
2024 execl /usr/sbin/uw-imapd
2024 reaped, status 0x3500
