(please comment in the thread at the above link)

I'm a network engineer and have never heard of ports 993 or 995. 587 was just by sheer luck that I was working on an Exchange server and 465 is a well known port. I'm also 85%+ through my CISSP studies and have never seen anything referring to 993, 995 or even 587. I would think that 587 and 465 would be good to know but as for the others I personally wouldn't and am not going to go through the trouble of memorizing them.

Interesting, until reading this thread, I was unfamiliar with all of those port numbers.
