First thing I would check is the /etc/hosts file and make sure that "localhost" was defined as 127.0.0.1 in that file.
Then I would try to telnet to localhost on port 25 again. If it's not resolving "localhost" properly then check on your /etc/nsswitch file and see what resolve is set to "files" should be the first entry.
