I don't know the history of 465/tcp as an entry in the registry found at <<http://www.iana.org/assignments/port-numbers>, but assuming the current entry is there for a reason (and hence is not an error that might be corrected), I believe this is the workflow required to change it. The port-number registry is maintained according to the directions in RFC 2780. To change an entry in the registry you need to write and submit an internet-draft <http://www.ietf.org/id-info/> which contains an IANA Considerations section specifying the change that is required. Those specifications will be executed (and the registry updated) if/when the I-D makes it through to that stage in the RFC publication process. RFC 2780 gives the following guidance for how such an I-D might reach that stage. 9.1 TCP Source and Destination Port fields Both the Source and Destination Port fields use the same namespace. Values in this namespace are assigned following a Specification Required, Expert Review, IESG Approval, IETF Consensus, or Standards Action process. Note that some assignments may involve non- disclosure information. Joe
