Since the latest yum update (the first for a few months) POP3 has stopped working.
I have double checked that pop3 is listed on the public zone and sure enough it is:
firewall-cmd --list-all --zone=public
public (active)
target: default
icmp-block-inversion: no
interfaces: eth0
sources:
services: cockpit dhcpv6-client http https imap imaps pop3 smtp-submission smtps ssh
ports: 25/tcp 80/tcp
protocols:
masquerade: no
forward-ports:
source-ports:
icmp-blocks:
rich rules:
But netstat does not show port 110 to be open:
netstat -tulnp
Active Internet connections (only servers)

I have double checked the service file for POP3 exists and includes port 110 and it does.
If I listen on port 110 and ping, this shows up (but the port is reported as closed):
tcpdump -i any port 110
tcpdump: verbose output suppressed, use -v or -vv for full protocol decode
listening on any, link-type LINUX_SLL (Linux cooked), capture size 262144 bytes

If I check mail there is a similar dump but nothing in logged by Dovecot.
