127.0.0.1 in a jail

Hi,
I have a question about jails and localhost.
I have found older documentation that says within a jail 127.0.0.1 is
mapped to the jail's IP address so that software that maps to localhost
or 127.0.0.1 get handed the jails IP.
However, I have tried ping (yes, I turned on raw sockets, bad me.) and
telnet to a sendmail process I have running.
They both return errors.
PING 127.0.0.1 (127.0.0.1): 56 data bytes
ping: sendto: Operation not permitted
ping: sendto: Operation not permitted
ping: sendto: Operation not permitted
# telnet 127.0.0.1
Trying 127.0.0.1...
telnet: connect to address 127.0.0.1: Connection refused
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host
Needless to say, this is causing problems with some software that I have
to install.
Does anyone know how to verify that 127.0.0.1/localhost map to the
jail's IP?
If it isn't, how do I change it to be so?
Thank you,
P.
