Do you have bind interacting with a windows Active Directory Setup 
which allows clients to update / modify DNS in bind?

Squirrel Mail has had quite a number of security problems in the past, 
Have you kept on top of the patches and updates for it in the past?

Is this a *full* port scan using -p 1-65535 / -p- or simply nmaps 
default scan?

Er, you say that you do not allow any telnet access to this server but 
you are running the telnet service, thats probably not a good idea, If 
you meant you don't allow any clients remote access to the server i'd 
suggest ditching telnet and using [Open]SSH... If *noone* has remote 
access to this server than you should disable the telnet service.
