Dont confuse the telnet client (which is just a client to connect to any port
you want) with the telnet port (23, typically, though there are variants)
Telnet should be enabled only if you want to give your users shell access to
that machine.
telnet 23/tcp
telnet 23/udp
rtelnet 107/tcp #Remote Telnet Service
rtelnet 107/udp #Remote Telnet Service
login 513/tcp #remote login a la telnet;
telnets 992/tcp # telnet protocol over TLS/SSL
telnets 992/udp
hp-3000-telnet 2564/tcp #HP 3000 NS/VT block mode telnet

Enable it in xinetd and start it ...
chkconfig ipop3 on should have done the trick I think (I don't use deadrat,
or xinetd <- planning to switch to this, so check)
