Subject: [Need IMAP Help, Please!]

I have a Linux box running imapd connected to the internet via slip.  
Attached via ethernet, I have a win95 box running PC Pine.  I have 
checked my imap daemon and it is IMAP2bis Service 7.8.  

I have checked my services file and have IMAP enabled on port 143.  All 
connections to this port is refused even with the daemon running.  I 
cannot telnet to the port and the win95 box always gets refused 
connection.  Is there something else I need to configure on the Linux server?

I am not yet even trying to get out over the internet, just get my server 
to service my PCPine on win95 box.

I have checked the sendmail and it is ready but is running ESMTP.  I 
don't think this is the problem since I haven't yet conneced using IMAP.

In article <[email-masked]>,
>connection.  Is there something else I need to configure on the Linux server?

I'm not sure what you mean when you say "even with the daemon running".  
Have you added the line

imap   stream   tcp    nowait   root    /usr/local/etc/imapd   imapd

To your /etc/inetd.conf?  Imapd does not handle multiple connections
itself and must be started using the Inet superdaemon.  If you have a line
somewhere in an rc file which actually runs imapd, you should remove it;
it isn't needed.
