dovecot Outlook failure

[Karl Pearson]

I'm in a client office, and they use Outlook. I installed a new server
after theirs was hacked into from China (story for another time). I've
installed Fedora 8 and everything is working, except dovecot from inside
the network (it's not going to work from outside anymore :) ).

If I sit at an XP PC and telnet 10.0.0.240 110 it just hangs for awhile,
then times out and ends up back at a DOS prompt. Same for 143 (IMAP).

I can telnet 10.0.0.240 25 and send email all day long.

I setup an Evolution account for both POP3 and IMAP on the server and it
works fine.

I have configured 2 other PCs with Fedora 8 in the last 2 months and
they both work fine. What am I missing here?
