hi
to troubleshoot and verify that its not the firewall
rules that causes the problem, disable the iptables
first and see if your pop3 is working.
i got the same entries for my /etc/xinetd.d/ipop3
file. works fine for me. flush your rules, then telnet
localhost 110 ... see if that gives you the response
you expect.
btw, you need to restart xinetd after any changes to
the /etc/xinetd.d files to make your changes take
effect.
