Out of curiosity, doesn't SCTP have a bigger port space (or its

I have in fact on several occasions proposed using SCTP as a transport for
various email services. I did so no so much to take advantage of the larger
port numbers, but because the multistream support SCTP provides could be
leveraged in several interesting ways. (In fact the multiplexing might
even lessen the need for so many connections.)
Ehem, where is this larger port number? The port numbers I see in
section 3.1 of RFC 2960 seem to be 16 bit.
