Do you have iptables on the linux box, or any other firewall? I have seen such behavior from a misconfigured firewall. A reason you might not see it locally is because most stock configurations allow an exception for loopback, and many allow for local network connections. One thing you ought to try is to telnet directly to the port. So, for port 143 (IMAP), you would go to a command prompt and type: telnet 66.127.45.55 143 You should see something like: * OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 UIDPLUS CHILDREN NAMESPACE THREAD=ORDEREDSUBJECT THREAD=REFERENCES SORT QUOTA IDLE STARTTLS] Courier-IMAP ready.

If you do not, then it means there's some sort of network problem between you and it, probably a firewall or NAT somewhere.
