Yes, that confirms my suspicion.....
Took me a bit, had to research....
Edit /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-master.conf and comment the lines like so....
#address = localhost # allow plain imap only on localhost
Do that for all the protocols you want to enable on an external interface...
I think I remember opening the firewall as well, I needed to allow nfs and I'm
pretty sure I recall allowing pop3s and imap from external.
If you are running sendmail you will have to tell it to accept from external as
well. The file is in /etc/mail, edit sendmail.cf to remove the loopback only
assignment, then make the new config and restart sendmail.
