I forgot to mention....that you should see....

[root@f7 ~]# netstat -nap | grep 993
tcp        0      0 :::993                      :::*
LISTEN      3318/dovecot

Or something to that effect.

But, since you said that telnet to port 993 on localhost works it is confusing.

You don't happen to have an DSL router with an embedded firewall giving you
grief do you?

For a test, you can always disable your firewall and check again.  The port
should show as "open" and not "filtered".
