The problem was that I didn't have any service active.
Thanks

Hello
I'm trying to configure imap; I gather it is necessary to have xinetd running first, is this correct?
Not necessarily. Running an imap server through xinetd is one option, but I think running it as a stand-alone daemon is probably better. I tend to use xinetd for on-demand, but infrequently used services.
OK, the problem is xinetd refuses to start, it displays this message:
# rcxinetd start Starting INET services. (xinetd) failed #
Have you configured the services that you wish xinetd to provide? I suspect it might fail to start if it hasn't got any services to offer. Check /etc/xinet.d/ and /etc/xinetd.conf
