Yes, thanks. I think I was a little confused on that point.
alfred is my server, in Ireland.
martha is my laptop, in Italy.

When I run netstat on alfred, I do indeed see dovecot listed:
=====================================
[root@alfred shorewall]# netstat -anp --tcp
Active Internet connections (servers and established)
Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address               Foreign Address            
State       PID/Program name
tcp        0      0 127.0.0.1:8000              0.0.0.0:*                  
LISTEN      3160/nasd
tcp        0      0 0.0.0.0:993                 0.0.0.0:*                  
LISTEN      21841/dovecot
...
=====================================

/etc/hosts.allow and /etc/hosts.deny are both empty,
on alfred and martha .

Stopping the firewall on alfred (with "shorewall clear")
does not seem to alter the situation in any way.

So it seems to me my problem probably lies with my dovecot settings.

[Just to recall: when I "sudo telnet <alfred IP> 993" on my laptop
I don't get "Connection refused";
I get "Trying <IP address?..." and nothing more.]

As ever, any and all suggestions gratefully received.
