netalyzr folks? comment?
Sorry, I hit send too soon ...
I've heard from a couple of people that the PIX will remap 587 (and 25) to oddball ports if you fiddle the config just right. Given all the other bogosity that box does with SMTP I wonder if there's truth to the rumour. (I haven't found anyone who can reproduce this on demand, so it's still apocryphal for now.)
465 is not an odd-ball port, it's the standard well-known port for STMPS. Fortunately, few people actually use SMTPS, preferring instead to do their security via TLS using the STARTTLS model after connecting to 25/587. Owen
