In the case that you do already have an instance of tcpserver running
under your supervise (`pstree` command could be very helpful in
determining that =) ) instance, you probably do not have the appropriate
IP addresses allowed within tcpserver's rules. Usually this is placed in
/etc/tcp.smtp and then built into a binary database which can be used by
tcpserver; but if its not (and I am also unfamiliar with the structure
used by these RPMs) you will have to find the script that supervise is
attempting to execute and give it a glance over to determine the location
of this file.
