connection refused


set up qmail and when I tried to connect I got a connection refused. tried telnet with multiple ports--all failed. Disabled firewalls completely and tried again--same result. What do I have set wrong?

have you started qmail? can you provide a "ps" output to this end?

sorry, guess I wasn't clear. qmail works totally fine. It's just that I can't connect to my server. I'm pretty sure I figured it out, though. tcpserver simply isn't listening. I don't know how to fix it, though. How can I make it listen at port 110?

nvm, figured it out
