Before I continue, I have looked at tons of posts online about saying that the protocols are not setup, and have tried what they have offered, but all of them do not help, and don't seem to resolve the issue.
I am having some issues, with setting up dovecot. I have been following this guide: http://www.krizna.com/ubuntu/setup-mail-server-ubuntu-14-04/ to setup a mail server, and it was all working. Postfix is installed and configured correctly. As I was doing the Dovecot installation, it asked me about using telnet to connect and verify the connections were working (in the guide) and whether ports: **110,995,993,143** work. But only ports **995** and **993** allow me to connect, but they do not show any kind of: '+OK Dovecot (Ubuntu) ready.' on them.
I see this in /var/log/mail.log:
Jun 26 09:05:07 master: Info: Dovecot v2.2.9 starting up (core dumps disabled)
Jun 26 09:05:07 config: Warning: service auth { client_limit=1000 } is lower than required under max. load (6000)
Jun 26 09:05:07 config: Warning: service anvil { client_limit=1000 } is lower than required under max. load (6003)
Even when I connect to the **993** and **995** ports. When I try the other ones, I just get:
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused
The process is running, and I can't see no errors. This is the output of **dovecot -n**
