Hmm.. My debian server has no control for inetd in /etc/init.d/ so I rebooted it to see if anything is different. I was using an inetd entry before... maybe it was still running when I did that test.

After reboot:

-------------- john@toolbench:~/FABprojects/VRBO_apt$ telnet mail.cibolo.us 9418 Trying 76.191.252.85... Connected to mail.cibolo.us. Escape character is '^]'.

Connection closed by foreign host.
-----------------

So, the symptom changed. No "cannot handle daemon internally" response. Your powers of deduction are equal to any nefarious Moriarty-like character out there it seems!

I'll test further soon.
