 would appreciate any pointers on what I could do to diagnose the
 problem.

strace the tcpserver process and see what happens after you get a
connection. Use the -f flag so that you also strace any forked processes
(e.g. smtpfront-qmail).

Will do, but I first want to get the SME/Alpha 5.5 show on the road. I need to test one or two more things to make sure all services work as expected. After that, I will certainly report back here and ask for help and testers. Because the unofficial Alpha port needs lots of testers and lots of help to resolve the mailfront problem and one or two other problems that I've had to work around.
