This works locally, but not remotely.  This tells me it's a problem
with the firewall rules.  However, this machine was previously behind
a NAT firewall/router with port 110 open - and mapped to this machine.
The only change is the machine is now directly connected to the cable
modem with no firewall in-between.  If the firewall rule disallowed
a port 110 connections from outside the local network, how could it
work when the firewall was in place?
