i've recently set up a post office on a new server, and have noticed that, along with the expected ports, the gwpoa process is listening on high numbered ports, both tcp and udp [47690 and 52348 in the below example] that i can't account for. additionally, these ports changes every time the gwpoa process is restarted. what is this for?
here is lsof output:
>lsof -nPi | grep -iF gwpoa | grep -ivF established
gwpoa 30920 root 7u IPv4 3635224 0t0 TCP *:143 (LISTEN)
