this would not affect IMAP in any way. If you get connection refused that
means there is no service listening on that port.  check your inetd.conf
if you get a connection and then it closes, then inetd is listening but
there still may not be a service there, or tcp_wrappers is not allowing
you in, but since you are allowing everything in, looks like the problem
is in inetd.conf.
