Well, I tried that. I can connect a telnet session on that port and that does
not refuse the connection, it sits there waiting, but I do not know the protocol
so I cannot check if it does what it is supposed to.
I also checked who is listening on that port, here is the dialog:
sh-3.2# sudo lsof -i -n -P | grep 10024
perl5.18 75844 _amavisd 5u IPv4 0x866f6119e39f833d 0t0 TCP
127.0.0.1:10024 (LISTEN)
perl5.18 75844 _amavisd 6u IPv6 0x866f6119e03f253d 0t0 TCP
[::1]:10024 (LISTEN)
looks sort of correct to me?
