Hi All Many thanks for the replies in this topic. Just to clarify, I can telnet in to my mail server on port 143 from any host without problems, I can log in and run the commands OK.
But I did note in my syslog that when I try to connect using pine (run on the server) it leaves an entry that says: "no such user: nigel@:127.0.0.1" I wonder if this might point towards where the configuration error lies. I have had some other suggestions via the list so will try those out an report back.
