try "telnet localhost 25", and see what happens.
If you are explicitly ejected, then there is a problem with the
server. Check that it is enabled in /etc/inetd.conf, and that there is
nothing wrong in /etc/hosts.allow and /etc/hosts.deny.
If there is no response, maybe it just canot resolve "localhost" (that
already happend once to me). In this case, check your /etc/hosts. Or try
to "telnet your.local.ip.address 25" and see if it is better.
