Problem telnetting to new account

This is weird--when I try to telnet to my new Verio account
this morning, the connection keeps aborting before I get the
login prompt. I can do FTP, I can do POP, and I can access my 
web site. So I think everything is okay on my end, and the 
site seems to be alive. It just won't let me make a telnet 
connection, either from my Mac or from here on shell5. 

I tried to call Verio support a few minutes ago, but the line
was busy. I need to work on a business project for a little
while, then will try the support folks again if I still can't
get connected. Meanwhile, I thought I'd post a note here to
see whether anyone else is having similar problems. Also,
are there any further diagnostics I could run? (Traceroute
gets to my new site just fine.)
