Benny you have no idea what you are talking about.

Oh

Telnet to 127.0.0.1 25 was imho what you mean, not to 127.0.0.2 ?

Did i sleep there?

I can't answer that, but maybe you missed a quirk of how the loopback interface is (usually?) configured on Linux: with all of 127/8. Loopback connections use whichever address in the loopback block one chooses on both ends. I'm not certain of it, but I believe that if you specify the interfaces listened on by IP, a program told to listen to 127.0.0.1 won't be listening on other loopback addresses.

This is not true on all Unix-like OS's.
