potential pop3d memory leakage (2.1.16)

Also proxyd.c ignores servername:, I've got a few other patches going 
against mine but right at the top of cmdloop() (line 1427 my file which is 
probably wrong) we have a gethostname and a hostname variable isntead of 
using the common config_servername.  Not bad bug, just inconsistent.

Thanks for the popd_msg patch, I was sort of loathing trying to figure out 
where that one really needed to be!
