Just for the archives sake, the problem I was having was causes because, the router's acl was blocking port 143.

Perhaps at the client end..or maybe the server end.. if it connects then drops the connect, its most likely a tcp_wrappers thing. if it says connection refused most likely it is a firewall thing. if it says connection timed out it is almost gauranteed a firewall thing. if it says no route to host, it could be a router acl thing. also test other ports on the system & ping it as well see what the results are. nate -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
