telnet/pop3 question



I am trying to debug using a pop3 mail reader (Outlook)
on a PC to read mail on my LINUX 7.2 machine
on my home network. Here is what is in my services file:

# grep pop3 /etc/services
pop3    110/tcp    pop-3    # POP version 3
pop3    110/udp    pop-3
pop3s       995/tcp             # POP-3 over SSL
pop3s       995/udp             # POP-3 over SSL

All of the hardware networking is OK since telnet to192.168.100.104
from the PC works, but when I try port 110, I get:

>telnet 192.168.100.104 110
Connecting To 192.168.100.104...Could not open connection to the host, on
port 110: Connect failed

I suspect this is the problem, but need a suggestion wht port 110 is
refused.

Thanks, Dave
