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)							   File Formats 						       telnetrc(4)

NAME

       telnetrc - file for telnet default options

DESCRIPTION

       The   .telnetrc	file  contains commands that are executed when a connection is established on a per-host basis. Each line in the file con-
       tains a host name, one or more spaces or tabs, and a telnet(1) command. The host name, DEFAULT, matches all hosts. Lines beginning with the
       pound  sign (#) are interpreted as comments and therefore ignored. telnet(1) commands are case-insensitive to the contents of the .telnetrc
       file.

       The  .telnetrc file is retrieved from each user's  HOME directory.

EXAMPLES

       Example 1: A sample file.

       In the following example, a .telnetrc file executes the telnet(1) command, toggle:

       weirdhost toggle crmod
       # Always export $PRINTER
       DEFAULT environ export PRINTER

       The lines in this file indicate that the toggle argument crmod, whose default value is "off" (or FALSE), should be enabled when	connecting
       to  the	system weirdhost. In addition, the value of the environment variable  PRINTER should be exported to all systems. In this case, the
       DEFAULT keyword is used in place of the host name.
