There are several different IMAP server packages. cyrus-imap,
courier-imap, uw imapd, other imap servers. Only some of them use
superservers (inetd, xinetd). Which IMAP server you are using?

command "telnet localhost 143" can show if you can connect to imap server
running on your machine.

command "netstat -anp | grep 143" should show process that uses imap port
(if you are using linux).
