stunnel4 on hardy reset by peer?

I have an odd issue and I can't figure it out.

I have stunnel4 installed and setup as a client. When my Hardy laptop
boots up Stunnel4 is running.

However connections to localhost:143 and localhost:119 get reset by
peer. If I restart Stunnel4 everything works fine. But I have to
restart it every time after it's already running from the bootup.

I don't have this issue with Stunnel4 on my Gutsy server. I did the
same thing to setup on my laptop that I did with my server. So
something has changed but I can't find it.

Any ideas?

Thanks
