i already comment the imap part on inetd.conf, it was ok when running using couriertcpd, but when i used tcpserver, that error occured.

Did you make sure to turn off couriertcpd before running tcpserver? It sounds like a simple question, but sometimes that's the most obvious mistake. If you're _sure_ that you're not running couriertcpd, and you've turned off imap in /etc/inetd.conf, then try and get hold of a program like lsof to find out what program is bound to port 143.

It means that some other program is listening on port 143. It's most likely an entry in your /etc/inetd.conf file. Comment it out, restart inetd, and then try to start tcpserver again.
