I used "aux/listen tcp" and ran "telnet tcp!localhost!25"
the result was a long pause and a ...
"telnet: connection timed out(connect x.x.x.x!25)"
x.x.x.x = my ip address
I guess I will try to set up the debugging and see what
that will tell me unless it is obvious at this point
with the telnet attempt.
