I'm working on setting up a Cyrus 2.2 IMAP server on Ubuntu Server 9.04.

If I telnet from the server itself:

# telnet localhost imap

I get:

* OK IMAP Cyrus IMAP4 v2.2.13-Debian-2.2.13-14ubuntu3 server ready

Which is what I should be seeing. If I try from another machine on the network:

telnet 192.168.5.122 imap

I get:

telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused

UPDATE: From /etc/cyrus.conf

# add or remove based on preferences
imap            cmd="imapd -U 30" listen="imap" prefork=0 maxchild=100
imaps           cmd="imapd -s -U 30" listen="imaps" prefork=0 maxchild=100
#pop3           cmd="pop3d -U 30" listen="pop3" prefork=0 maxchild=50
#pop3s          cmd="pop3d -s -U 30" listen="pop3s" prefork=0 maxchild=50
#nntp           cmd="nntpd -U 30" listen="nntp" prefork=0 maxchild=100
#nntps          cmd="nntpd -s -U 30" listen="nntps" prefork=0 maxchild=100

To the best of my knowledge, there is no firewall running on the box. I've tried restarting the saslauthd and cyrus2.2 daemons, with no effect.

What else can I try?
