i.e., without "listen = *" it complains:

	Error: service(pop3-login): listen(::, 110) failed: Address already in use
	Error: service(pop3-login): listen(::, 995) failed: Address already in use
	Error: service(imap-login): listen(::, 143) failed: Address already in use
	Error: service(imap-login): listen(::, 993) failed: Address already in use
	Error: service(director): listen(::, 5515) failed: Address already in use

which at minimum is a confusing error message...
