Now?
I'm surprised it is so high.

Of course, it is multiple choice. So 25% get it purely through guessing. And as all of those are super common port, in theory everyone should know most of them as they are all POP and IMAP. So anyone missing this is... BAD. Even if you don't know SMTP, you should know POP and IMAP. But everyone should know SMTP, only HTTP and HTTPS is more common. And if you've set up, you know, Spiceworks, you need to know port 25. You need it for everything. It's like the first port everyone learns and you deal with it every day.
The number of angles that should push this percentage to 99%

(but I still got it correct)Yeah, but... who doesn't use email? You need that port for even the most rudimentary high school level starter class, for any entry level cert (A+, Net+, MSP, CCNA, etc), to use email clients, to send alerts... basically every role in IT uses it at some point. Like port 80. Sure someone, somewhere doesn't use it, but we are talking the .001%.
It's a port that non-IT people should know.

Think I know where I went wrong. For now i'll leave it play with XenServer and XenOrchestra.

Why do people not listen to you when you give them perfectly sound advice... ugh

Because we're so good that even when others make horrible decisions, we pull them out of it.

Sounds like an "askhole".

How are they to know your advice is sound versus anyone elses?

because I can point them to documentation describing what they want to accomplish and how it needs to be done.
8-)On the brighter side, he wasn't being an askhole... He was genuinely curious about stuff, so I gave the reasons that were listed in the Docs.
