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.

hosts

HOSTS(5)							File Formats Manual							  HOSTS(5)

NAME

       hosts - hostname to IP address database

SYNOPSIS

       /etc/hosts

DESCRIPTION

       The  hosts  database  lists the IP addresses and the hostnames that translate to these IP addresses.  It is used by nonamed(8) in a network
       without name servers.  A simple /etc/hosts may look like this:

	      127.0.0.1      localhost
	      192.9.200.1    darask
	      192.9.200.2    burask

       The localhost entry lists a special address that refers to the local host itself (a kind of /dev/tty for hosts.)  You should only  list	it
       if nonamed needs it!  The other entries are actual machines.  The file may contain comments marked with '#'.

       You  can  have  aliases	(more  hostnames on the same line), but it is not recommended, because nonamed can't present them to the system as
       CNAME records.  An often seen form like

	      192.9.200.1    darask.home.cs.vu.nl  darask

       is harmless though, and has the small advantage that you can use the short name in /etc/ethers so rarpd can match it at boot time.

FILES
