fail to telnet localhost 106

Hi folks,

Ubuntu 7.04 server amd64

On running;

$ telnet localhost 106

Code:

Trying 127.0.0.1...
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused

$ netstat -an | grep 106
$ sudo netstat -an | grep 106
both no printout

Pls advise where shall I check and how to fix the problem. TIA

P.S.
1)
confirmed with ISP port 106 is open

2)
I'm adding "change password" plugin on SquirrelMail. After installing poppassd on repo I tested it whether works according to /usr/local/squirrelmail/www/plugins/change_pass/INSTALL

Code:

Be sure to test and make certain your poppass daemon is working properly.
To test, try telneting into the daemon and changing a password:

$ telnet localhost 106
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
200 poppassd v1.8.1 hello, who are you?
user <username>
200 Your password please.
pass <oldpassword>
200 Your new password please.
newpass <newpassword>
200 Password changed, thank-you.
quit
200 Bye.
Connection closed by foreign host.

B.R.

telnetrc

telnetrc(4)						     Kernel Interfaces Manual						       telnetrc(4)

NAME

       telnetrc, .telnetrc - Specifies setup commands for a telnet session

SYNOPSIS

       $HOME/.telnetrc

DESCRIPTION

       The .telnetrc file contains the setup information for a telnet session.	It is a hidden file in your home directory and must be readable by
       the user logging in.

       The file can consist of multiple entries for each remote host to which a user can connect.  A remote host entry consists of multiple lines.
       The first line is the name of a remote host. The subsequent lines must begin with blank spaces, and contain telnet subcommands.	These sub-
       commands are processed as though they were typed in manually. Lines beginning with a number sign (#) are comment lines.	See telnet(1)  for
       a complete list of telnet subcommands.

       To specify subcommands that apply to all systems, create an entry, using the word "DEFAULT" as the system name, and specify the telnet sub-
       commands in the subsequent lines.

EXAMPLES

       The following shows a sample .telnetrc file:

       # Beginning of telnetrc file # Default subcommands that apply to all systems DEFAULT
	  environ undefine USER # First system entry system1
	  set echo
	  toggle crlf # Second system entry system2
	  set echo
	  mode line
	  toggle crlf
