imap problems, ie it aint working

Hi peeps,

Hope someone can help me here. I am trying to get imap up and running on a freebsd 4.1x box with sendmail on there.

So far I have done:

make imap-uw install clean
create a cert.
Put:

imaps stream tcp nowait root /usr/local/libexec/imapd imapd
pop3s stream tcp nowait root /usr/local/libexec/ipop3d ipop3d

into etc/inetd.conf and rebooted.

When I try and login i get the error "Could not connect to mailserver,x,x,xx. Connection was refused"

Now this was using imap compatable mail client (thunderbird) and the system is not running iptables or anything. Also secure mail is not needed, just imap functionality,s o ssl etc are not required.

if I grep imap-uw | ps - aux i get nothing.

Any ideas ?

Cheers

Stu
