Hi Eddie,

That is the port number that was used. Think of them as the port number
with IP, services are on their own ports. A session connect to a server
uses port 1024, tty connect to a client uses 87, ping uses 7 and so on.
We should have a services file where these are allocated, I don't think
there is one (perhaps on the wiki).

73 de Pär (wonder if that character works, a with two dots over that
is).

P.s. Just adding a date header for smtp, seems its mandatory with some
servers...
