Unable to telnet to port 110

[Opesh Alkara]

Raj,
 seems an absurd suggesstion but can you confirm whether your pop3 server is 
listening to 
 192.168.205.224 <http://192.168.205.224> (i.e.) your ethernet Ip 
address.....
 I mean have you tried
 #telnet 192.168.205.224 <http://192.168.205.224> 110
 on your POP3 server....?
 Thanks,
Opesh Alkara
