[ale] Puzzled

[robertheaven at mediaone.net (Robert Heaven)]

I'm puzzled about something. Why is it that every time I send out an 
email, the SMTP server that I use attempts to do a tcp connection (SYN) 
back to me on port 113 (auth)??? The mail always goes out without a 
problem but I'm curious why they're attempting to connect back to me. 
And, what is "auth" by the way?
