This tells you that the courier mail server on 127.0.0.1:25 is listening for connections on 0.0.0.0/0:25, ie all addresses.
No, Andr� was correct.� If the "Local Address" isn't 0.0.0.0, then it's the address of a local interface.� When it's the address of a local interface, the kernel will only accept connections from that interface.� In this case, his sendmail server is listening on the loopback device, only.

Sorry, early morning. Anyway, etc/courier/esmptd, comment out the ADDRESS= line, or set it to the appropriate addresses.
