port 135

[Nate Cole]

This might be the wrong list for this type of question, but the
answer is that 135 is the Microshaft Port.  They direct almost
*all* initial COM/DCOM traffic through port 135.  After
connection they will redirect to other ports, but it all starts
with 135.

In the case of Outlook (correct me if I'm wrong anyone), it
connects to the Exchange server on 135.  Then creates another
socket to listen for messages from Exchange.
