ntop recognizes traffic by port # (the smaller of the src
or dst). So a packet from :12345 -> :25 is seen as '25' or smtp.
Read docs/FAQ - there's an article in there on how ntop identifies
protocols (or maybe it's in the man page ...) anyway, it's the protocols
parameter, which gets preloaded with a default set unless you specify something
else.
Certain mail programs use other ports - so ntop doesn't see
their traffic as 'mail'. If it's totally random, there's not much you can
do. If it's an additional port, you can create a custom protocols
list.
