the DNS records do point to the right host for MX records. courier-imap is running.

As far as I know, the MX record is only for MTAs talking SMTP. Your IMAP cilent does normal DNS lookups (A or CNAME records).

right, i realized after being reminded. the early-morning/ late night haze of things now working right.

To test this, try to set the real IP of your server in your mail client and watch the tcpdump then.

well, that does the trick. setting the IP instead of the name allows a login. for one of domains on the machine. setting it back to the hostname gets me a 'connection refused'.

DNS changes should have propagated by now ...
